Day 1 delivered exactly what it always does.

Chaos, yes — but not randomness.

Structure underneath it, if you were watching correctly.

Upsets landed. Tight games flipped late. Double-digit seeds didn’t just show up — they competed, and in some cases, dictated pace. Lines moved aggressively throughout the day, and by the time we got to the late window, the market had already told a story most bettors weren’t listening to.

That’s March Madness.
