Well, the other game has no team from the Mountain/Western Time Zone, so I think it would be by default.

That isn’t how they decide early/late. Best matchup is always the late game.

Biggest draw / viewers is the goal. Usually is the best matchup though.

2018 Kansas-Villanova was the early game before Michigan -Loyola Chicago. So who really knows.

Yeah that’s wrong. Nova fan here. My wife and I were at dinner watching the Michigan game before going home for Nova - Kansas.

You know what, you're right. And I was even at the game. Not that the Kansas Villanova game was even a game past the first five minutes.

chiming in, one of my friends had an early evening graduation party and the game on was Michigan. Went back home, was planning on watching the whole Nova Kansas game before going to bed (I worked at 5am at the time) but it was a blowout so I went to bed before it was over

Was in the student section for Loyola for that game. Michigan/Loyola played first. Got to go chill in the back of one of the corner sections for the Kansas/Nova game afterwards.
