The Elite Eight round of the 2025 NCAA basketball tournament begins on Saturday, March 29, and continues Sunday, March 30, with two games each day.

And in the late game, No. 1 USC is as an underdog against No. 2 UConn, led by star guard Paige Bueckers. The Trojans, despite losing star JuJu Watkins to a season-ending injury earlier in the tournament, managed to survive their Sweet 16 matchup against Kansas State. But UConn will provide a much stiffer test.
