March Madness Vegas Recap: Chalk, CBS Coverage Rants, Houston Cashes & Iowa Stuns Florida

CJ Sullivan recaps NCAA First Round Weekend in Las Vegas with the SGPN crew, including the Circa meet-and-greet, watching games at Westgate, and shout-outs to fans and personalities like Derek Stevens, Ryan “Moneyline” McIntyre, and Scott Bowser. He reviews a chalk-heavy opening weekend (39–9 straight up; 27–16–2 ATS), complains about CBS studio coverage, forced Charles Barkley bits, and repetitive Capital One ads, and notes trueTV’s relative appeal. Game talk includes St. John’s beating Kansas on a late layup, Kentucky’s overtime win over Santa Clara followed by Kentucky quitting vs Iowa State, and Iowa’s upset of Florida amid controversy over endgame strategy and clock reviews. He previews a Wednesday Sweet 16 show and gives two NIT plays: St. Joe’s +11.5 and Tulsa -4.5.
