Livescore
After the first weekend of the 2023 NCAA Tournament set a record with 13 lower seeds beating high seeds, the Sweet 16 field is set and noticeably lacking in terms of historic powers. Duke, Kansas, Kentucky and Indiana were among the fabled programs to bow out in the second round, leaving the likes of UCLA, Michigan State and UConn as the biggest basketball brands left in the field.
Gonzaga is still around, too, and some would put the Bulldogs in the company of the Bruins, Spartans Huskies. But coach Mark Few’s program is still seeking its first national title, as our most programs remaining in the field. Among them are No. 1 seed Alabama and No. 1 seed Houston. Both have been among the most dominant teams in the sport this season and are seeking to break through for something special.
The Cougars finished as national runners-up in 1983 and 1984 but have never won it all. The Crimson Tide have never even been to a Final Four. Standing in the way of the Crimson Tide changing that this weekend is No. 5 seed San Diego State as the Aztecs look to keep their impressive charge going.
With four games on tap for Thursday and four more for Friday before Elite Eight action on Saturday and Sunday, it’s going to be another huge week in college hoops and here’s how to watch all the action
