Davis has also written a number of offbeat sports columns for other publications, as he has an unhealthy obsession with all things athletics.

March Madness Day I: One upset in the books

Old Dominion has the first upset of the tournament, beating sixth seeded Notre Dame, 51-50. Notre Dame couldn't break ODU's zone at all during the second half, shooting 6-20 from three for the game. That works for me, since I picked the Monarchs in an upset.

BYU and Florida look to be headed to OT, as Florida's Chandler Parsons missed a fadeway at the end of the second half. BYU apparently was granted a timeout, though, and missed a desperation 3.

Villanova still hasn't woken up yet, either. The Cats have been down the entire game and are still down 7 with four minutes left. Nova is shooting like the entire team is hungover - 32 percent from the field, 23 percent from 3. Scottie Reynolds, Nova's senior All America, is playing especially awful. He's 1-12, 0-7 from 3 and has committed 4 turnovers. I've had BMs that look better than Reynolds does today.
