The Ducks are the Cinderella story nobody saw coming, as they barely held on for a one-point win against No. 7 Temple in round one. They then went on for big wins over No. 2 Duke and No. 3 Maryland. They’re the first No. 10 seed ever to reach the Elite Eight, and would make history in the Final Four for more reasons than one.
Reaching the next round would mean knocking off UConn, its 110-game win streak, and four-year championship streak. The Huskies are 35-0 this season, beating three NCAA tournament opponents by a combined 106 points.
The winner will play Mississippi State.
South Carolina won its Sweet 16 matchup in dominant fashion, beating up on No. 12 Quinnipiac by 42 points. That was the Gamecocks’ second massive win, after an opening-round 50-point rout.
But Florida State has cruised by just as easily with three double-digit wins. Its defense held No. 2 Oregon State to seven third-quarter points in a 13-point victory in the Sweet 16.
The winner of that game will play No. 2 Stanford, which came back from a 16-point deficit to beat No. 1 Notre Dame.
