While we don't yet have TV times and channels for the four 2011 NCAA Tournament Sweet Sixteen games to be played on Thursday, we do know which eight teams will be in action after Arizona's late victory against Texas. UConn's Kemba Walker, BYU's Jimmer Fredette, and Duke stars Nolan Smith and Kyrie Irving will be in action, making this possibly the most star-packed day of college basketball this season.
