2014 NCAA MEN’S BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT
March 19, 2014  | By David Bianculli

TruTV, 6:30 p.m. ET

 

Tonight’s first game: Cal Poly Mustangs vs. Texas Southern Tigers.  The Mustangs may be this year’s least likely NCAA participants, having ended the season with a record of 13-19. (The Tigers, by contrast, though also competing in a please-let-us-in “First Four” game, have a winning record of 19-14.)  But one of the thrills of watching March Madness is to witness the feisty spirit of little teams with nothing to lose who manage to peak at just the right time. At 9 p.m. ET, the second game follows, featuring the Iowa Hawkeyes (20-12) vs. the Tennessee Volunteers (21-12). Both games are televised live by TruTV.
