Four teams will advance to the Elite Eight after Thursday’s March Madness games, which includes matchups between BYU and Alabama, Maryland and Florida, Arizona and Duke and Arkansas and Texas Tech.
Alabama became the first team to advance to the Elite Eight on Thursday with an incredible 3-point performance from the Crimson Tide. Nate Oats’ squad won 113-88 with a men’s NCAA Tournament-record 25 made 3s on a record-51 attempts. Later, No. 1 seed Florida dispatched No. 4 seed Maryland 87-71 to send two SEC teams to the Elite Eight.
Coach John Calipari and the Razorbacks are the lone double-digit seed in the Sweet 16, although they’re not a typical Cinderella team, given their Hall of Fame coach plus a roster that features plenty of high-end talent.
