Let the second round of March Madness begin.

After the first two full days of games, the men's 2025 NCAA Tournament bracket is down to 32 teams, and it's shaping up to be an exciting Saturday. There are eight more games on the schedule, with spots in next week's Sweet 16 on the line.

No. 12 seed McNeese State and No. 4 seed Purdue are the first tip of the day as McNeese tries to back up its first-round upset of No. 5 seed Clemson with some more magic in the Midwest Region before coach Will Wade heads to the new job awaiting him at North Carolina State. The marquee West Region matchup featuring No. 10 seed Arkansas and coach John Calipari against No. 2 seed St. John's and coach Rick Pitino follows as another afternoon standalone game.

But that's just the beginning. No. 1 seeds Auburn and Houston are both in action, and there's several power conference matchups with no clear cut favorite. It's highlighted by a trio of games involving Big Ten teams ‒ No. 5 seed Michigan vs. No. 4 seed Texas A&M in the South Region, No. 6 seed BYU vs. No. 3 seed Wisconsin in the East Region and No. 7 seed UCLA vs. No. 2 seed Tennessee in the Midwest Region.

Here's what to know to watch all the men's March Madness second-round games scheduled for Saturday at the 2025 NCAA Tournament:
