Sure, these games may not seem as important as the ones that start on Thursday, but you never know how one of these teams could impact the tournament. In recent years, we’ve actually seen a First Four team win at least one game in the tournament’s “main draw” in every year since the the Dayton games became a thing in 2011. Most recently, Syracuse defeated Arizona State in Dayton, then knocked off both TCU and Michigan State to crash the Sweet 16 in 2018.
