Friday's first-round NCAA tournament games may not have delivered the stunning upsets fans often crave, but that sets the stage for a thrilling Sunday packed with competitive matchups.
The spotlight shines brightly on the clash between No. 4 Kansas and No.
5 St. John's, where coaching legends Bill Self and Rick Pitino square off for only the second time.
This game promises to be a tactical chess match, with both coaches bringing their unique strategies to the court.
But don't overlook the other enticing battles. Earlier in the afternoon, Iowa State takes on Kentucky in what promises to be a high-energy affair, and shortly after Kansas and St. John's tip-off, Virginia faces Tennessee in a showdown of defensive powerhouses.
Prime time doesn't disappoint either, as top seeds look to assert their dominance. Florida squares off against Iowa, while Arizona faces a potential challenge from Utah State. These games could set the tone for the rest of the tournament.
