March Madness 2014: Sweet 16 Day one -- Florida, Arizona, Wisconsin look to dominate

Donald Miralle

There are four games on tonight . . . I don't know much about them besides this:

Region Team Record Team Record Time
1 South 11 Dayton 25 - 10 @ 10 Stanford 23 - 12 5:15 CBS
2 South 4 UCLA 28 - 8 @ 1 Florida 34 - 2 7:45 CBS
3 West 6 Baylor 26 - 11 @ 2 Wisconsin 28 - 7 7:47 TBS
4 West 4 San Diego St 31 - 4 @ 1 Arizona 32 - 4 8:17 TBS

There are a few players to look out for tonight:

Game 1: 11 Dayton @ 10 Stanford

  • Dayton is Cinderella right now, but no starts on the radar of draft scouts

vs.

  • Dwight Powell (#55.00), Stanford bigman is a bubble guy for the NBA right now.

Game 2: 3 UCLA @ 1 Florida

  • Zach LaVine (19.50) has been on everyone's radar for a while, but his draft stock is slipping
  • Kyle Anderson (21.18), UCLA's swing has been rising up the charts though
  • Jordan Adams (37.44), yes, another UCLA guard, and a guy who is projecting to be a mid 2nd rounder

vs.

  • Chris Walker (39.00), young big with upside
  • Patric Young (44.50), senior big with, uh, game?
  • Scottie Wilbekin (99.00), senior guard with three point range
  • Casey Prather (101.00), was on peoples' lists early, has disappeared of late
  • Kasey Hill (101.00), same with point guard Hill

Game 3: 6 Baylor @ 2 Wisconsin

  • Isaiah Austin (49.20), dude is 7'1, and that makes a difference, no matter what your regional seed is
  • Cory Jefferson (53.17), All the best parts of Cory Maggette and Richard Jefferson?

vs.

  • Sam Dekker (32.50), has a name that sounds like he lives in the Blade Runner universe

Game 4: 4 San Diego St. @ 1 Arizona

  • No one for San Diego State is important, apparently. Sorry guys.

vs.

  • Aaron Gordon (8.50)
  • Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (30.71)
  • Nick Johnson (38.63)
  • Kaleb Tarczewski (59.50)
  • Brandon Ashley (60.75)

Arizona has a legion of players. I'm going to be talking about them in the next round too, so I'll avoid talking about them now.

Hope you guys enjoy watching the show!
