March Madness has officially begun. On this episode of "Current Sports with Al Martin," Al discusses the results from Wednesday's first two games of NCAA Tournament action. Also, Al asks the question to Spartan fans, "Have the expectations changed?" Is winning a national championship no longer the expecation of Tom Izzo's team? Al, engineer Ian Hawley, and production assistant Jon Simon debate Michigan State's chances of making it past Duke in their potential Sweet Sixteen matchup, and callers share their concerns about MSU's tournament prospects. It's another hour of basketball talk during the most wonderful time of the year: March Madness.
