It’s time to crown regional champions in March Madness.
The Elite Eight field in the 2024 men’s NCAA Tournament is set after the Sweet 16 wrapped up on Friday night.
This year’s Sweet 16 featured the top eight top overall seeds for just the fifth time since tournament seeding began in 1979. But not all of those heavyweights were able to advance.
A pair of No. 1 seeds (UNC, Houston) fell in the regional semifinals while three of the four No. 2 seeds (Arizona, Iowa State, Marquette) were bounced as well.
The reigning champion and top overall seed UConn Huskies are still alive, though, as are Zach Edey and the No. 1 Purdue Boilermakers. No. 11 NC State, meanwhile, remains the lowest-seeded team in the field after the Wolfpack extended their stunning postseason run.
With the regional final matchups set, here’s everything to know as teams battle for trips to the Final Four:
