March Madness schedule, odds and TV info for Sunday's women's NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 games
Jace Evans
The Sweet 16 of the women's NCAA Tournament has not been lacking for drama.
Saturday saw the first No. 1 seed get knocked out of the tourney as No. 4 Indiana defeated North Carolina State to advance to the Elite Eight for the first time. Arizona also earned its program's first Elite Eight berth Saturday as the third-ranked Wildcats took down No. 2 Texas A&M behind a brilliant game from Aari McDonald.
The early action saw No. 2 Baylor clip Michigan in overtime, 78-75. And in the first game of the day, UConn defeated Iowa in a much-hyped battle of freshmen phenoms.
Sunday features four more Sweet 16 games with the potential for great theater. Powerhouses South Carolina and Stanford face challenges from a pair of No. 5 seeds, while Oregon and Louisville face off in a battle of perennial strong teams. In the nightcap, No. 2 Maryland – the highest-scoring team in women's college basketball – takes on No. 6 Texas.
