Preview Roundups
March 23, 2024
North Texas at Seton Hall 11:30 AM ET
Seton Hall was among the Big East schools left out of the NCAA Tournament bracket, drawing criticism from within the league.
Dayton at Arizona 12:45 PM ET
The Dayton equipment managers could be excused if they were ready to start packing the bags and loading the bus with 7:39 left in Thursday's game.
Bradley at Cincinnati 2:00 PM ET
A former conference rivalry that had gone mostly dormant will renew Saturday in the second round of the NIT, when No. 2 Cincinnati hosts No. 3 Bradley.
Gonzaga at Kansas 3:15 PM ET
Two of the top programs this century meet for just the third time when Kansas and Gonzaga battle for a Sweet 16 spot in Midwest Region play on Saturday in Salt Lake City.
Michigan St. at North Carolina 5:30 PM ET
The West Region will produce a second-round game ripe with NCAA Tournament history when North Carolina clashes with Michigan State on Saturday.
Washington St. at Iowa State 6:10 PM ET
Iowa State is often mentioned as a team that might be playing for a Final Four berth next weekend. Those opinions certainly have merit.
Virginia Tech at Ohio St. 7:00 PM ET
When No. 3 seed Virginia Tech plays at No. 2 Ohio State in the second round of the NIT on Saturday, each team feels its ability to overcome adversity has helped reach this point.
Oakland at NC State 7:10 PM ET
Oakland University was so far off the map before Thursday that casual fans of the NCAA Tournament needed reminding the school is in Michigan -- not California.
Texas at Tennessee 8:00 PM ET
This is practically a homecoming of various proportions for Tennessee coach Rick Barnes.
Duquesne at Illinois 8:40 PM ET
Illinois and Duquesne last faced off in the NCAA Tournament during the Truman administration.
Oregon at Creighton 9:40 PM ET
Dana Altman keeps saying it, but only because it's true, because of where he calls home: Oregon is No. 1 for him, but Creighton is "1A."
