About 2024 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament Sweet 16

All four No. 1 and all four No. 2 seeds in the men’s bracket are still standing in this year’s Sweet 16. That means that top programs like the Duke Blue Devils and the UConn Huskies are still in the dance, but there are still some chances for big upsets. The Iowa State Cyclones will see the best offense they’ve faced all year when they play Illinois on Thursday night, for example.

Top NBA draft prospects like Kentucky’s Rob Dillingham and Colorado’s Cody Williams are already out of the tournament, but the teams still in the dance likely aren’t focused on potential professional success. They’re zeroed in on making the Elite 8, but they’ll have to win their Sweet 16 game first!
