The NCAA Tournament second round schedule for March Madness this weekend is nearly set.
The March 20 slate of games was a little tamer than the previous day’s results, the notable exception being Kentucky’s overtime victory over Santa Clara.
The Wildcats will face Iowa State, who lost its best player to injury early in the first round victory over Tennessee State.
Tennessee will face Virginia in the second round, among the closest matchups on paper in the Round of 32.
Here is the full March Madness schedule for the second round of the NCAA Tournament, including Sunday’s games:
