Only one day of game remains in the NCAA Tournament’s opening weekend. If it’s anything like the first three, then get ready for some patented March Madness.
Round 1 concluded Saturday with an absurd nine double digit seeds advancing to Round 2, including five seeded no higher than 12. The string of upsets continued on Sunday as 8-seed Loyola Chicago beat 1-seed Illinois, 11-seed Syracuse outlasted 3-seed West Virginia, 15-seed Oral Roberts beat 7-seed Florida and 12-seed Oregon State outlasted Cade Cunningham and 4-seed Oklahoma State.
Who knows what awaits teams on Monday?

There are certainly plenty of interesting storylines to monitor, including 7-seed Oregon’s first game of the tournament after advancing past VCU with no contest; 14-seed Abilene Christian vs. 11-seed UCLA in a battle of double-digit seeds; 8-seed LSU vs. 1-seed Michigan in what could be a fantastic game; and more.
With that, here’s everything you need to keep up with the final day of the NCAA Tournament’s opening weekend:
