March Madness 2012 Schedule: Day 8 TV Schedule and Live Streaming Info
The second half of the round of 16 that kicks off on Friday night might as well be renamed the Kendall Marshall Wrist Watch, since that's all anyone's been talking about all week.
Finally, the day is upon us when we will find out whether or not North Carolina's star point guard will take the court or ride the bench while his surgically repaired right wrist continues to heal. The only people more eager than the fans to find out the verdict will be the Ohio Bobcats, who will actually have to play in the game.
Believe it or not, there are still three more games to be played in the regional semifinals, and there are still three potential Cinderellas in the mix, threatening to bust brackets everywhere. Tenth-seeded Xavier will take on Baylor, Indiana will attempt to knock off top-seeded Kentucky, and 11th-seeded NC State will square off against the mighty Kansas Jayhawks.

Upset to Look Out For
Those Hoosiers are playing pretty well right now, but will Kentucky really fall this early in the tournament? Two of the most storied programs in college basketball history with 12 national titles between them will face off in the South region.
For Kentucky, the whole season will be a failure if it doesn't win it all. Wildcats head coach John Calipari told The Associated Press, "You're supposed to win every game by 25. If you're winning by 15, what's the issue? What's going on with the program? If you lose, God forbid, lose one, how can we lose this game?"
But the Hoosiers are playing with confidence and, you might remember, are one of just two teams that have beaten the mighty Wildcats this season.
Game of the Night
Was there really any question?
The wrist the whole world is watching will either make an appearance on the court against Ohio, or it won't. Either way, this is going to be no easy ride for UNC. Ohio is making sure of it.
"Nobody in our locker room feels like we're a Cinderella team," the Bobcats' D.J. Cooper told the AP. "We feel like we can compete with anybody on a national stage."
During the tournament, Ohio has boasted an improved shooting percentage from beyond the arc and better accuracy from the free-throw line, so the Tar Heels' dominating defense will have its hands full.
