Just one SEC team is left in the NCAA Tournament after the Sweet 16 was determined after Sunday's play.
Two seed Tennessee survived an upset bid by Butler and won in overtime and the Vols will now face Louisville in the East Regional. The other game there finds Washington State playing top seed North Carolina.
In the South Region, two seed Texas survived a scare from Miami and will now play Stanford, an overtime winner over Marquette. Top seed Memphis will play Michigan State as well.
In the West Region, top seed UCLA was almost upset but survived and the Bruins will now play third seed Xavier. The other game here has West Virginia, upset winners over two seed Duke, taking on upstart Western Kentucky.
In the Midwest Region, Davidson looks to keep its upset run alive by playing slow paced Wisconsin; Davidson beat two seed Georgetown to get to this game. The other matchup has top seed Kansas facing NCAA bubble team Villanova from the Big East.
