Three 2023 March Madness bracket games to watch
One team set to disrupt 2023 March Madness brackets: The model says No. 7 Michigan State loses to No. 10 USC in the first round in the East Region. The Spartans are giving up 67.4 points per game this season, which ranks 100th in the nation. Meanwhile, the Trojans feature a dynamic duo between Boogie Ellis and Drew Peterson. Ellis is averaging 18.0 points per game, while Peterson averages 6.2 rebounds and 4.4 assists. SportsLine’s model expects Michigan State’s defense to struggle against the Trojans, resulting in an early exit for the Spartans.
Also in the East Region, No. 6 Kentucky makes the Sweet 16 despite a shaky year overall. The Wildcats were inconsistent all season, but they feature one of the nation’s most dominant players. Senior Oscar Tshiebwe enters the NCAA Tournament 2023 averaging 16.5 points and 13.1 rebounds per game. He’s posted 19 double-doubles this season, a big reason why SportsLine’s model expects Kentucky to beat Providence and Kansas State en route to the Sweet 16.
