2024 NCAA Tournament bracket: College basketball scores, live stream by region, March Madness TV schedule

Saturday is headlined by the beginning of the second round in the 2024 NCAA Tournament with some tremendous matchups on the schedule as we take another big step toward crowning a national champion. The opening game on the slate features No. 7 seed Dayton battling No. 2 seed Arizona with a trip to the Sweet 16 on the line. 

The action continues in Salt Lake City, Utah with No. 5 seed Gonzaga facing No. 4 seed Kansas. The Jayhawks are coming off a close win over Samford, while the Bulldogs knocked off McNeese in commanding fashion.

No. 9 seed Michigan State faces the West Region’s top seed in North Carolina. The Tar Heels are 5-0 all-time against the Spartans in the NCAA Tournament.

No. 14 Oakland — the Cinderella of the opening day of the first round — will face No. 11 seed NC State. Oakland guard Jack Gohlke will look to ride his momentum after becoming just the fifth player in NCAA Tournament history to hit 10 3-pointers in an NCAA Tournament game during an 80-76 win over No. 3 seed Kentucky.
