Higher-seeded LSU jumped out to a blazing hot start in the first 12 minutes of its matchup with Missouri, then held on to secure the 76–68 victory.  

Powered by a second-half surge, Mississippi State defeated South Carolina 73–51. And after trailing by double-digits at halftime, Vanderbilt overcame the deficit to upset sixth-seeded Alabama, 82–76, behind Scotty Pippen Jr’s. 25-point performance.
