Kansas State guard Kamau Stokes and teammates celebrate after defeating Kentucky 61-58 early Friday in Atlanta
It puts the eight weakest qualifiers against each other, four of which are the lowest seeded teams that automatically qualify for the brackets and the other four the lowest seeded teams that have been invited to compete.
Before they reach San Antonio, regionals in Atlanta and Los Angeles need to be decided. "The coaches' rooms are on each side of a hall, so we see each other all the time".
Meanwhile, the men's event will start on Saturday, with the final bouts taking place the next day.
With Loyola-Chicago's captivating NCAA tournament run hanging in the balance, it was Marques Townes' turn to deliver another memorable finish.
UK's won so many big games here, they've called it "Cat-lanta" since at least the 1990s.
Who do you think will win this showdown and continue on to the Elite 8? In the championship final, Caeleb Dressel of Florida made history by recording the fastest ever 50 freestyle for the second time that day. Knox is most likely to play the role of Aaron Harrison, hitting game-winning shots from the perimeter. "We know what every game means".
"(2016) didn't end the way we wanted it to, as we lost that game, but coming back after a terrific win over North Carolina in Charlotte, getting that victory and then riding the tide of tha, t and the experience and the excitement and everything that goes with it. The Golden Knights (23-10-6), seeded third in the East Region, face No. 2 seed Providence (23-11-4) on Friday in Bridgeport, Connecticut, with the victor advancing to play Notre Dame or Michigan Tech for a berth in the Frozen Four in St. Paul. Certainly, Nevada would have a chance to win with a stop, but fouling to extend the game would have given the Wolf Pack more ways to win.
Meanwhile, over in Los Angeles, No. 3 seed MI made short work of upstart Texas A&M, solidifying the only non-upset of the night with a convincing 99-72 victory.
Texas A&M was just 12-of-32 from the floor in the half, while the Wolverines shot 57 percent.
Iowa unemployment rate holds steady at 2.9 percent

That is when things escalated and took an unpleasant turn. "Get out of my auto ", the white driver reportedly shouted. The couple has also filed a police report and asked the company to get dashcam footage from the driver.
Absolutely everything MI tried to do offensively worked, no matter who had the ball. All net. The three-pointer sent Houston packing, and Poole's teammates chasing him in sheer joy.
0-Perfect brackets picked through the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament. That left the Wolverines as the highest seed still standing - but even that took a minor miracle.
Kentucky faced Kansas State Thursday night in a game that slowed down into a mess. However, the Kansas Jayhawks should prove too powerful for the Tigers. Five of Bruce Weber's players were disqualified with five fouls.
After the buzzer, scattered Loyola fans in red-and-yellow scarves floated through the Kentucky hive mind, which was grumbling about shot selection and free throws as it re-traced familiar steps in the cold, back through its adopted March home. PJ Washington was just 8 of 20 from the charity stripe. Both squads looked primed to meet in the Final Four.
Demeaned by many pundits as the worst team still alive in the NCAA Tournament, ninth-seeded K-State got 22 points from Xavier Sneed and gave the South Regional one more upset. It was a brutal blow for the Zags, with Tillie contributing in a variety of ways this season. Mikey Eyssimont is St. Cloud State's second leading scorer.
As for the West, Vitale is going with No. 4 Gonzaga and its "winners mentality" over No. 9 Florida State. "You know we've seen business pick up a lot lately".
"It's not any time to start celebrating right now", Florida State coach Leonard Hamilton said. It could be close, but Kansas should head to the Elite Eight. Neither inspired enough confidence in the selection committee to earn higher than a nine seed. They haven't played Air Force since the 1998-99 season. Loyola (31-5), which has won three tournament games by a combined four points, awaits the victor of the Kansas State-Kentucky game in Saturday's regional final. The Golden Knights have been nationally ranked this season, twice beating Providence, their opponent Friday.
Although they may not be the Orlando Magic's option at the top of the Draft, there are still players who will likely make a big impact at the professional level. He also blogs about basketball at Palestra Back and has contributed to Rush The Court, ESPN.com, and USA Today Sports Weekly.
