NCAA Bracket 2013: Highlighting the Best Games on March Madness Saturday
Through Thursdayโs March Madness games, there have been few upsets, but to the viewers' delight, that brings more top-ranked matchups in the later rounds.
Look no further than Saturdayโs slate to satisfy your college basketball palette, with several high-ranked games on deck.
Some familiar Cinderella teams will try to recapture some magic with upsets, while Louisville and Gonzaga try to continue their runs as No. 1 seeds.
Letโs take a closer look at the key games coming up in the Round of 32.
No. 5 VCU vs. No. 4 Michigan, CBS, 12:15 p.m. ET
The crown jewel of Saturdayโs games starts at the top, as Michigan attempts to continue the Big Tenโs stellar play in this tournament.
The Wolverines looked like their top-five selves from February, hitting a barrage of three-pointers for a double-digit win over South Dakota State.
Trey Burke didnโt have his best game, though, and heโll need to play better facing โHavocโ in their next matchup.
VCUโs defense is a point guardโs nightmare, as the Rams will try to take the ball out of Burkeโs hands early and hope his teammates show their inexperience.
Itโs a clash of styles you wonโt want to miss.
No. 14 Harvard Crimson vs. No. 6 Arizona, TNT, 6:10 p.m. ET
For sheer Cinderella potential, this game has the โmust watchโ label written all over it.
Harvard will need to shoot a high percentage to hang around in this one, and Wesley Saunders will have to pace them as their top talent.
The hero of the New Mexico win, Laurent Rivard, will get a few open looks, but heโll have to hit some with Wildcat defenders in his face as well.
On the other end, Arizona is poised to win in a runaway. At one point Sean Millerโs squad was ranked No. 2 in the country, and they have the players to play like it. Mark Lyons and Solomon Jones should overwhelm the Crimson with their inside-out playmaking and overall athleticism.
No. 6 Butler Bulldogs vs. No. 3 Marquette Wildcats, CBS, 7:45 p.m. ET
Butler has their sights set on a deep tournament run, and Brad Stevenโs has a cast of talent that could do just that.
The Bulldogs possess a physical big man in Andrew Smith and a sharpshooter with range in Rotnei Clarke. Those two may not be Matt Howard and Gordon Hayward, but they arenโt far off. ย
Roosevelt Jones, though, may hold the key to his teamโs success as heโll be tasked with keeping up with Vander Blue in the final five minutes.
Both teams like to play tough and physical, so this matchup isnโt one for the finesse player. If the Wildcats shoot a better percentage than their paltry 35 percent display on Thursday, theyโll hang around and turn this game into a barnburner.
