The Rundown
A sense of previous normalcy has been provided with the return of sports' most unpredictable time of the year in the NCAA Tournament.
Following the cancellation of the 2020 college basketball tournament due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the excitement in all of its glory has returned to the forefront of sports fan's attention.
As a result, madness has continued with a high number of down-to-the-wire finishes and upsets in the opening slate of games. However, none were bigger than the upset in the South region, with the Oral Roberts Golden Eagles producing a bracket-busting victory over the Ohio State Buckeyes.
With the Florida Gators now set to take on the Cinderella team to this point, the NCAAs leading scorer guard Max Abmas and forward Kevin Obanor will be crucial pieces for the high-scoring Golden Eagles' chances at another improbable win.
Meanwhile, Tre Mann and Colin Castleton look to combat ORU with their towering length in comparison, crashing the boards and penetrating the lane to put pressure on, statistically, the worst defense in the field of the remaining 32.
