Andy and On3’s James Fletcher III break it all down. For possibly the first time all season, Alabama’s defense matched its offense and the Crimson Tide beat North Carolina in a thriller that ended with multiple Grant Nelson blocks. Alabama will face Clemson, which beat Arizona on a night when the Wildcats inexplicably kept shooting threes that wouldn’t go down when easier scoring options were available. In the East Region, Illinois is headed to the Elite Eight for the first time since 2005 after beating Iowa State. The Cyclones brought their usual suffocating defense, but the Illini matched it and Terrence Shannon Jr. scored 29 and helped seal the win with a breakaway dunk. Illinois will face defending national champ Connecticut in the Elite Eight. The Huskies went cold late in the first half Thursday but roared to life in the second half and crushed San Diego State by 30 in a rematch of last season’s national title game. Friday, South No. 1 seed Houston plays Duke, while Marquette plays tourney darling N.C. State. In the Midwest region, Tennessee plays Creighton and top-seeded Purdue plays Gonzaga.

0:36.5	but I was thinking last night as,
0:39.1	as Alabama and North Carolina are playing,
0:40.7	as good as Illinois and Iowa State was,
0:44.1	like,
0:44.3	if you were living in the old days,
0:46.6	when all the games were on CBS and you only got the game
0:49.7	that corresponded with where you were regionally,
0:54.7	you would, imagine you lived in Chicago, but you're not an Illinois fan.
0:59.2	You don't know anything about it.
