This March may not have brought the typical chaos, but the outcomes of the NCAA Tournament have set the stage for an exhilarating Elite 8, with spots in the Final Four on the line. While Cinderella didn’t make an appearance this year, the Elite 8 still features a wealth of compelling narratives. The SEC has a genuine opportunity to secure all Final Four slots, as each regional final showcases a team from the SEC going up against competitors from the Big XII, Big Ten, and ACC. If this scenario unfolds, the SEC would finish 2-2 in the Final Four.
The lone top-two seed to fall short of the Elite 8 was St. John’s, which made way for a three-seed, Texas Tech. The Elite 8 games are scheduled for Saturday night and Sunday afternoon, with Saturday’s matchups broadcast on cable via TBS and truTV, while CBS will air the games on Sunday.
