Round 2 of the 2021 NCAA Tournament has been just as wild as Round 1, and there’s still a full day of action to go Monday. However, just on Sunday, three of four lower seeds advanced in the Midwest Region, which will have a Sweet 16 made up of No. 2 seed Houston along with No. 8 seed Loyola Chicago, No. 11 seed Syracuse and No. 12 seed Oregon State. No. 15 seed Oral Roberts also won out of the South Region.
The spotlight will be on No. 10 seed Maryland, No. 11 seed UCLA, No. 13 seed Ohio and No. 14 seed Abilene Christian to follow suit on Monday. Whether they will be able to is up in the air considering they all have tremendous opponents ahead of them, but this may wind up being one of the wildest NCAA Tournaments in recent memory if at least a few of them can triumph.
