M - I - Z ... N - S - U !!!
This inaugural edition of TOURNEY WATCH covers the first second round of the NCAA Tournament.
Clearly, it's already a little out of date for part of the NCAA bracket, but I'd prefer to publish a separate edition with all the second third-round results together just to keep things straight.
There is no CBI, CIT or NIT coverage because apparently none of K-State's opponents were invited to any of those tournaments ... which is just fine with me, as I'd rather not pay any attention to them anyway.
