At the beginning of the year nobody could have predicted that Florida Atlantic and Kansas State would be playing for the opportunity to get to the Final 4, but that’s the Elite 8 matchup we’ve got on Saturday night. FAU had only appeared in the NCAA Tournament one time prior to this year while K-State […]
On paper the best matchup on Thursday’s Sweet 16 slate is #3 Gonzaga taking on #2 UCLA. Both of these schools have National Championship aspirations, and have had some Tournament battles in the past including the Bulldogs’ 93-90 buzzer beating win in 2021 that sent them to the Championship game where they eventually lost to […]
The road hasn’t been easy for #8 Arkansas – the second lowest seed left in the tournament behind #9 Florida Atlantic – but the Razorbacks have looked impressive in reaching the Sweet 16. That being said, reaching the second weekend of the tournament is old news for Eric Musselman’s squad as they also played into […]
There are some who would say that the college basketball calendar reads January, February, Izzo. For whatever reason, the legendary Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo just seems to get the most out of his teams at the most important time of the year, while Kansas State front man Jerome Tang has his team in […]
Gonzaga (29-5) coming into 2023 March Madness as a #3 seed doesn’t put the extra pressure that they’ve had in recent years as the tournament favorite, and that could be their ticket to success this postseason. The Zags bring a 10-game win streak into Sunday night’s meeting with #6 TCU (22-12) as the Horned Frogs […]
A couple of the nation’s best players will be in the spotlight Sunday night as Isaiah Wong and the #5 Hurricanes go for the slight upset against Trayce Jackson-Davis and the #4 Hoosiers. Indiana (23-11) cruised to a 71-60 victory over Kent State in the first round while Miami (26-7) staved off upset-minded Drake 63-56. […]
A couple of bracket busters meet up on Sunday night with one of them making an unlikely trip to the Sweet 16. #9 Florida Atlantic topping Memphis in the opening round wasn’t as big of a surprise considering the Owls are a 32-win team, but Fairleigh Dickinson became just the second #16 seed to ever […]
Either Creighton (22-12) or Baylor (23-10) will best last year’s tournament showing, as each lost in the round of 32 in 2022. The Bluejays had an excuse as they lost big man Ryan Kalkbrenner to injury yet still fought hard in a 79-72 loss to Kansas. BU ended up falling 93-86 to North Carolina, ending […]
The Big Ten lost a #1 seed when Purdue was upset by Fairleigh-Dickinson on Friday night, but now Maryland has a chance to get some revenge for the conference when they play #1 overall seed Alabama in the round of 32. The Terps have their work cut out for them Saturday though, as the Crimson […]
Defense looks like it will be on display Saturday when Northwestern (22-11) meets UCLA (30-5) with a trip to the Sweet 16 on the line. The total for this meeting is just 126 at the offshore sportsbooks, with the Bruins right around a -7 point favorite to reach the second weekend of the tournament for […]
