Two No. 1 Seeds Fall, Sweet 16 Continues Tonight

Thursday was not a good day to be a No. 1 seed.

Two of the three remaining top seeds—Gonzaga and Arizona—lost, and three underdogs won outright on the first night of the men's March Madness Sweet 16.

Duke kept on dancing, though, and Coach K’s dream sendoff scenario is well within reach as the Blue Devils stepped even closer to the Final Four in New Orleans with another win.

Action in the men’s bracket continues tonight, Saturday’s Elite Eight matchups are set and the women’s Sweet 16 gets underway this evening.
