Murray State beat Colorado State to win the first game of the NCAA Tournament, or, well, at least the first full day. And no, I’m not counting the play-in games, thankyouverymuch. The 17-point victory was as decisive as it looks, as Murray State turned a one-point halftime deficit into a big-time tournament win. As you can see from CBS Sports’ shot chart, it was a long afternoon for the CSU Rams.
Next up, the Racers play the winner of the Marquette/BYU game. I hope your brackets didn’t get destroyed after one game:
Murray State wins! Who is 1-0?
Murray State plays great TEAM basketball that’s why they will continue winning.

This guy might be onto something.
