March Madness is in full swing!
After a thrilling first day of hoops on Thursday, the Round of 64 wrapped up on Friday. Kicking off the day, ninth-seeded Baylor squeaked out a win over eighth-seeded Mississippi State and will now take on No. 1 seed Duke on Sunday. The Blue Devils got National Player of the Year co-favorite Cooper Flagg back in the lineup for Friday's game after he missed the last two contests due to an ankle injury.
Two-seeded Alabama advanced, while another No. 2 seed, Michigan State, will also continue its tournament run after a strong second half against No. 15 seed Bryant. On the upset front, No. 12 Colorado State took down No. 5 Memphis.
Meanwhile, UConn is trying to make history this spring. The eighth-seeded Huskies held off ninth-seeded Oklahoma, as they seek to become the first team to win three straight national titles in over 50 years.
Here are all the top moments from Friday's games!
