ENTICING MATCHUP:
Maryland vs. Davidson (first round): Let's call this the Lefty Driesell Bowl. The Wildcats, who haven't won an NCAA tournament game since Driesell was their coach in 1969, face the Terps, Driesell's team from 1970 to 1986.
BURNING QUESTION:
Will another team -- especially the winner of the No. 5 Butler-No. 12 Old Dominion first-round game -- supplant Winthrop or Davidson as the mid-major story of the tournament?
