After three days of frenetic action, the NCAA Tournament will be down to the Sweet 16 by the end of Sunday.
As is usually the case at this stage in the brackets, the most intriguing matchups as the second round comes to a close will involve double-digit seeds that pulled off upsets in the opener. Cinderellas break through to the second weekend of the tournament every year; who will become America's darling in 2024?
The contenders Sunday include No. 13 Yale, out for more against No. 5 San Diego State after stunning Auburn; No. 12 James Madison, which will look to take down No. 4 Duke; and No. 12 Grand Canyon, which will have to contain a fourth-seeded Alabama team that dropped 109 points in the first round.
Three No. 1 seeds will also be in action and hoping to avoid a stumble, with Purdue set to face No. 8 Utah State, defending champ UConn meeting No. 9 Northwestern and Houston facing an in-state foe in No. 9 Texas A&M.
Here's how to watch all of Sunday's second-round action:
