March 27, 2014— -- It may have felt like forever, but the NCAA Tournament resumes tonight as Sweet Sixteen action gets underway.

Tipping things off is a battle of double-digit seeds as Dayton faces Stanford. Dayton's already busted plenty of brackets with upset wins against Ohio State and Syracuse, while Stanford took down New Mexico and Kansas. Dayton is the last remaining Atlantic 10 team in the NCAA Tournament.

The B1G and Big 12 then clash as Wisconsin plays Baylor. It's the first time the two schools have ever met in a men's basketball game.

The late games feature two number one seeds: Florida faces UCLA and Arizona takes on San Diego St.

While UCLA wants a high-scoring game -- the Bruins averaged nearly 82 points per game during the regular season -- Florida has ridden a stingy defense to 28 straight wins. There's also a bit of history: UCLA has never beaten Florida, losing in the 2006 national championship and in the 2007 and 2011 Final Fours.

Elsewhere, San Diego State returns to the Sweet Sixteen for the first time since 2011, while it's Arizona's third Sweet Sixteen appearance in four years. Both teams want to use turnovers to score quick buckets and feature excellent defenses.
