The Oregon Ducks have fallen in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, losing to the 4-seed Arizona Wildcats, 87-83. The Ducks led big in the first half, and in the second half, Oregon brought an 11-point deficit back to one but couldn’t complete the comeback.
Down the stretch, Oregon inched closer with Nate Bittle post-hooks, stops on the other end, and missteps from the Wildcats. But in the final seconds, with the Ducks down three, Arizona intentionally fouled twice, denying Oregon an opportunity to tie the game. With 3.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Walter Clayton Jr. and No. 1 seed Florida ended UConn’s pursuit of a third straight national championship, with Clayton burying two key 3-pointers in the final three minutes of a scintillating 77-75 victory for the Gators in the second round of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday.
Clayton, a first-team All-America guard, finished with 23 points as Florida (32-4), one of the favorites for this year’s title, survived a strong challenge from coach Dan Hurley’s Huskies (24-11), who came in with modest expectations as a No. 8 seed but led for most of the second half.
It took until Sunday, but the NCAA tournament finally provided a classic (and controversial) buzzer-beater.
Here are the biggest stories as the men’s Sweet 16 field came together and the women reached the midway point of their second round on Sunday.

UConn took on a top-seeded Florida team that many have pegged to win the national championship.

SEATTLE (AP) — Caleb Love had 29 points and nine rebounds, and fourth-seeded Arizona advanced to the Sweet 16, surviving a ragged finish to beat former Pac-12 rival Oregon 87-83 on Sunday night in the NCAA Tournament.
The Wildcats (24-12) will face top-seeded Duke in the East Region semifinals in Newark, New Jersey. Three years ago, Love starred for North Carolina in a Final Four victory over the Blue Devils that sent Hall of Fame coach Mike Krzyzewski into retirement.
Tobe Awaka added 12 points and 14 rebounds for the Wildcats, who had never faced the Ducks in the tournament.
Sean Miller’s departure for Texas from Xavier can be easily dismissed.
Oh, that’s just today’s college athletics. There’s no loyalty from coaches and players. He’s getting more money, has more NIL resources and is going to one of the giants in college sports. He’s no different than anyone else.
You know what? Screw that.
This deserves some good, ol’ fashioned old-school treatment. Miller leaving Xavier is a bunch of crap, and Musketeers fans should be pissed off.
