March Madness resumed last night and the madness continued as three of last night’s four winners were the lower-seeded teams. The highest seed left is South and West regions is 3-seed Michigan, whom UCLA went into overtime against on the road.

After Loyola-Chicago defeated Nevada, Ramblers head coach Mark Moser now has more Elite Eight appearances than Steve Alford in nine fewer seasons.

In the other two games yesterday, Kansas State and Florida State also advanced.

Today, Kansas starts off the day with a game against 5-seed Clemson at 4:07 pm PT while Villanova tips off against 5-seed West Virginia twenty minutes later. The Villanova game will likely be the best game today as both Jay Wright and Bob Huggins should have both teams well-prepared.

The third game of the night will feature 2-seed Duke against 11-seed Syracuse while 2-seed Purdue faces 3-seed Texas Tech in the final game today.

Here are all the details for tonight’s action:
