There are four more games tonight in the 2013 NCAA Basketball Tournament and the rewards are a trip to the Elite Eight games on Sunday. The highlight (for me anyway) is the underdog Florida Gulf Coast Eagles versus the Florida Gators. Make sure you have a few cups of coffee as that game will not end past midnight but the game between the two Florida schools is fascinating. Elsewhere, top seeded Louisville will face a much-tougher-than-a-12-seed Oregon Ducks team that is looking for respect.
With Indiana’s loss last night, two number one seeds have already failed to make the Elite Eight and Kansas and Louisville have tough games tonight. And the Duke/Michigan State game is a veritable coaching clinic. There is something for everyone tonight. Here are the details on today’s games:
Oregon vs. Louisville, 7:15 p.m. ET, CBS (Jim Nantz/Clark Kellogg/Tracy Wolfson)
Kansas vs. Michigan, 7:47 p.m. ET, TBS (Marv Albert/Steve Kerr/Craig Sager)
Michigan State vs. Duke, 9:45 p.m. ET, CBS (Nantz/Kellogg/Wolfson)
Florida Gulf Coast vs. Florida, 10:17 p.m. ET, TBS (Albert/Kerr/Sager)
