3/29/16 - Sweet 16 Recap

The Sweet Sixteen games started on March 24th with Villanova handing Miami a big loss. It was not much of a game as Villanova led the entire game. Then came another highly anticipated game with Oklahoma taking on Texas A&M. Oklahoma got out to an early lead and never looked backed. Then Kansas would take on Maryland. Maryland was able to keep it close during the first half. But Perry Ellis was too much in the second half and led the Jayhawks to a 16 point victory. The closest game of the night would be between Oregon and Duke. Oregon in the end would just be too athletic for Duke to handle and the Ducks would end up winning by 14.

The second set of Sweet Sixteen would provide a little more entertainment. The first game of the night was dominated start to finish by Virginia over Iowa State. The next game between Wisconsin and Notre Dame provided a big boost in entertainment for the games. The game was back and forth for the whole game. Wisconsin would go up three with about 30 seconds left, but turnovers would cause the Badgers to lose the game. Syracuse and Gonzaga had a similar game to the Wisconsin and Notre Dame game. Gonzaga would lead for much of the game, but in the late stages of the game, the Orange would turn on the full court pressure and get back into the game. The Orange turned Gonzaga over and made threes to eventually win the game in stunning fashion. In the last game of the Sweet Sixteen North Carolina stream rolled Indiana in a big win.
