The Sweet 16 is getting ready to tip off and plenty of excellent matchups are coming our way. This has not been a good year for Cinderellas, but the top teams are giving us plenty of drama.
Indiana is the next team ready to challenge No. 1 overall seed South Carolina. The Gamecocks are deep and strong on both ends of the court, but only nine teams have ever lifted the trophy after an undefeated season, so statistically it is South Carolina vs. the field.
LSU is still alive and trying to defend its national title, but the next step in that journey is taking down a tough UCLA team. Meanwhile, the Iowa Hawkeyes are also itching to get back to the championship game, but before even thinking about the Elite Eight — where they could potentially get a rematch against LSU — they will have to figure out how to win against Colorado.
This is going to be a fun weekend of hoops, and we’ve taken the liberty of ranking all eight matchups in the Sweet 16. Here is a closer look at the upcoming weekend:
8. (1) South Carolina vs. (4) Indiana
The Gamecocks are an intimidating team to face for anyone right now, but this could be a fun matchup since both teams have plenty of scorers who can shine any given…
