Saturday Second Round Games Open Thread 🏀

The first round of the men's NCAA Tournament has officially concluded, and we are now on to second round games that will wrap up over the weekend.

If you missed any of the madness, our college basketball writer Mike Rutherford has a breakdown of Thursday and Friday's action, capturing the best (and the not so best) moments from each day .

The women's tournament has a full slate of first round games again today. There were no upsets in yesterday's first round action, but perhaps we will see one today đź‘€.

Here is a full TV schedule for the men's and women's tournaments.

Which teams look like locks for the Sweet 16? Any Dark Horse Final Four teams you have your eye on?

Let us know in the comments and follow along with us all day, as we'll be glued to every moment of March Madness!
