Murray State - Murray State dismantled favored Marquette to become one of the tournament's potential Cinderellas.

Predictions
Athlon Sports: "A common school of thought is that the team with the best player has the best prospect of winning an NCAA Tournament game. Given only a handful of individual stars are up to Ja Morant's level, that bodes well for Murray State. Morant's ability to elevate his teammates further positions the Racers to make a possible run at the Sweet 16.
"However, Florida State's played some great team basketball down the stretch, including a win over Virginia in the ACC Tournament. Leonard Hamilton's one of the most underrated head coaches in the game, and his typical defensively stout approach will give Murray State trouble. The Seminoles may be without veteran Phil Cofer, a certain blow to the lineup. But Florida State has unparalleled depth that can crank up the intensity late in a game — as was the case vs. Vermont."
Prediction: Florida State 71, Murray State 67
