So let me get this straight: Gonzaga, St. Mary's, and Portland State are all given noon Eastern start times? Nothing like giving teams 9 a.m. starting times (their time). They'll be eliminated before their fanbase can take their lunch break!

But hey, you gotta make sure the big-money East Coast teams play in primetime, right? That's more important!
