I gotta say, the one nice thing about being in college is the way you can disregard midterm studying for massive intakes of gaming without a second thought (until the night before the exam, that is!). That's pretty much been me for the entire month of October, and I expect many others reading our fifth Weekly Digest at this very moment.
This weekend, sixteen schools step outside their comfort zones (and divisions) and fight for the chance to play in the "second" Ro16 next week. Join CSL veterans McGill, Duke, and UCI for their second or third runs; cheer on playoff newcomers Binghamton and Ryerson; BM the team that knocked you to fourth place in divisions. Maybe even join channel CSL and challenge UVic to a rap battle.
Follow the Round of 16 (part I of II) this weekend, casted by our very own Mark Ha (DarthThienAn from Princeton), Peter Liu (Daisy P, Princeton coach), and Dennis Qian (menace from Rice).

The number one seeds, in the meantime, have the luxury of watching and waiting for one extra week. Let's take a look at what they have to say from their pedestals...
