Here are Saturday’s key March Madness 2023 games to watch:

The second round gets started Saturday with the only mid-major vs. mid-major matchup of the day.

Furman’s dramatic victory over Virginia featured the only near-buzzer-beater Thursday, as JP Pegues drilled a 3-pointer with 2.2 seconds left after a costly Cavaliers turnover. San Diego State, meanwhile, is the last team standing from the Mountain West Conference, which once again badly underperformed in the NCAA Tournament.Arguably the best matchup of the day features a Duke team that looked as impressive as any in the first round while dismantling Oral Roberts, against Tennessee, which scuffled, but still held off Louisiana.

The winner of this matchup will advance to the Sweet 16 at Madison Square Garden, which surely would be filled with Blue Devils fans if they can move on.Tennessee has struggled to score since the loss of point guard Zakai Zeigler to a torn ACL, which nearly cost them in the first round.All eyes will be on the status of Kansas coach Bill Self, who wasn’t on the sidelines Thursday as he recovers from a medical emergency that has made him unavailable since the start of the Big 12 Tournament.

The defending national champions will have their hands full with Arkansas, a disappointing team during the regular season, but one filled with talent.
