NCAA Tournament 2012: Thursday's Early Games Open Thread

Tournament time is finally here. Now many of us are buried in our cubicles working instead of watching today's games, while others are at home watching all the action.

There are some fascinating matchups today. I am excited to see what Harvard can do against a bigger time like Vanderbilt and if BYU can hang with Marquette. Syracuse and UNC-Asheville will probably be a snoozer, Fab Melo or not, and I fully expect Wisconsin to crush Montana.

So leave your thoughts, predictions and game updates below. Man I can't wait to get out of work and enjoy me some college basketball. Go Team!
