March Madness 2013: First Four Round 1 schedule, Las Vegas odds

The March Madness 2013 NCAA Tournament gets underway tonight with the "First Four" games. The First Four which is technically round one of the Tournament has two games on the schedule today and two tomorrow with the winners of each game moving on to round two this Thursday and Friday.

Tonight's first game features two No. 16 seed as North Carolina A&T takes on Liberty.

Liberty can do something tonight that is rarely done - advance to round two of the NCAA Tournament with a below .500 record.

The nightcap features two No. 11 seeds when St. Mary's takes on Middle Tennessee.

While it is true that all four of the teams that will advance to round two over the next two days will probably not have a shot of winning in the next round, you never know!

That's the beauty of the tourney.

Here is a look at the schedule and Las Vegas odds for the First Four Round 1 NCAA Tournament action.

Tuesday March 19:

  • North Carolina A&T vs. Liberty (+3.5 O/U 126) 6:40 p.m. EST
  • St. Mary's vs. Middle Tennessee (+3 O/U 132) 9:10 p.m. EST

Wednesday March 20:

  • LIU Brooklyn (-1.5 O/U 144) vs. James Madison 6:40 p.m. EST
  • La Salle vs. Boise State (-1.5 O/U 139) 9:10 p.m. EST
