Follow the correct format for game/postgame threads
We have created a bot that generates Game Threads and Post Game Threads - please look for the daily Game Thread Index to request a thread. If the bot is down or the game thread was not created prior to the game ending, users may create a gamethread post manually. There is a very specific format for game/postgame threads titles that we use in r/CollegeBasketball. Please follow the template or your thread will be removed.
