And then there were four. But damn what a journey it took to get us here! Sunday's UConn/Duke game was so epic and so good (unless you're a Duke fan) that Hartzell and Norlander had to spend the first half hour unpacking what we all saw go down in Washington DC last night. Plus, other takes from the weekend; including the two other really good games in the East Regional, Illinois' romp through the Midwest, the absolute wagons that are Michigan and Arizona, plus some first-hand accounts of the San Jose trip from our boy Norlander. Some Indianapolis look-ahead with the fellas, and we end the show with the latest on UNC's head coaching vacancy and the top three candidates - in order - as we head into the Final Four. And what happens if they all say no? Yikes.

The guys are hunkered down on a Monday night because, well, Norlander has been hiding in the CBS cave since Thursday afternoon. Hartzell steers the ship on this rare CSN after dark episode - he's ranked his top 10 games of the opening weekend plus some other reactions to what we saw as the field got whittled from 68 to 16. First Four takes? Yep. High Point props? You already know. Georgia slander? Obviously. So many elite curated takes from the first and second rounds - as you've come to expect from the fellas. Plus what's the latest on Hubert Davis and UNC? As of Monday night, Norlander gives us what he's been hearing on the latest in Chapel Hill, plus when he expects this to get resolved. And - as you'll hear - it's not even a given that anything is going down. We haven't dropped a pod in almost a week so it's time to make good. Enjoy!

With March Madness in full swing, David Kahn calls upon his former co-host, Kyle Schassburger, to help steer the #3D ship as they reunite, reminisce and regale the listeners with loads of Louisiana Tech stories. From Schass' interactions with the head Diamond Dawg Lane Burroughs to insane travel tales throughout the country, it's been a wild ride for the new Louisiana Tech PxP Voice, but he's still the same ole Schass and we love him for it. Come for the Diamond Dawg Talk, stay for the bracket dissection and enjoy the witty retorts that only these two can generate with one another.

Your one-stop shop for all things NCAA 1st and 2nd Rounds! Megan Gauer - who went 68-for-68 in her bracketology, it should be pointed out - and Rob Joyce run through every host site for the first two rounds. Potential upsets, names to know, potential speed bumps for the top seeds, even clarifications about bracketing rules... they've got it all. And they end with some Final Four predictions (hint: your Final Four should be chalky).

The bracket is here and it's gorgeous. Let's run through the field and talk about these games. Matt Norlander is ready to go, Hartzell is back from Nashville and even though his brain is more scrambled than usual, we're ranking all kinds of things on this bracket. Best 8/9 game? Best announcer pairings? Most likely 12-over-5? Who got the best - and worst - geographical pod assignments? So much to cover in today's show, and honestly the fellas could have kept going. What did Norlander think of Miami University getting shipped to Dayton? How many head coaches got fooled by the internet and the fake tip times? What's the most popular upset pick that nobody is talking about? So many questions but we're here for answers, folks! And - in a CSN exclusive - the guys run through the guidebook on how to properly write team names onto your bracket (because nobody spells out Wisconsin in full, we're not psychopaths here). An absolute banger of an episode, and frankly the only NCAA Tournament preview show worth listening to.
