The 2024 NCAA Tournament bracket has reached the Sweet 16 and it’s been a somewhat chalky year by March Madness standards. After no team seeded higher than No. 4 made the Final Four in 2023, 10 of the 12 teams seeded No. 3 or better are still alive in the 2024 March Madness bracket. The only time that all four No. 1 seeds advanced to the Final Four was in 2008, but will we see history repeated in the 2024 NCAA bracket?
No. 11 seed North Carolina State is the only team that made the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament 2024 that is seeded higher than sixth, but there could be a few more twists and turns over the final two weekends of the season. Who comes out on top in their respective regions and what can you expect at the 2024 Final Four in Phoenix?

Top 2024 NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 bracket
One team to back in 2024 NCAA Tournament upsets that Casale is predicting in his second-chance March Madness bracket 2024: No. 3 seed Creighton defeats No. 2 seed Tennessee in the Midwest Region. These are two experienced and dynamic squads that have had Final Four aspirations all season. Oddsmakers list Tennessee as a 3-point favorite, but Casale likes the Bluejays to pull off the upset because of their perimeter shooting.
“There’s something about this Creighton team I like, especially after beating Oregon in a game the Bluejays probably should have lost,” Casale told SportsLine, “This game will come down to the 3-point shot. Both teams shoot a lot of them and they each defend the perimeter well. Tennessee is the better overall team on paper but I think Creighton will once again find a way to win a tight game and advance.” See the rest of Casale’s second-chance 2024 March Madness bracket here.
