The first two rounds of the 2013 NCAA basketball tournament are just about officially over, but the action for Saturday, March 23, 2013, is already set. Eight games are set for Saturday, and after all of Friday's action is over, there will be eight game set to go on Sunday. Below is a full television schedule for the first half of the third round that will be played on Saturday, March 23, 2013, on the CBS family of networks.
There were a number of upsets throughout the first two rounds of the tournament, and that includes none bigger than Florida Gulf Coast University taking down a second-seeded team in Georgetown 78-68. FGCU is scheduled to play again on Sunday though, and they look forward to hopefully continuing their Cinderella run.
Playing on Saturday though will be fourteenth ranked Harvard taking on a number six seed in Arizona. Harvard shockingly upset number three seed New Mexico 68-62. Arizona took down Belmont 81-64 to advance.
Late in the day on Saturday, fourth-seeded Syracuse will face off with a twelfth seed in California. The Bruins upset fifth-seeded UNLV 64-61 to head into the third round. Syracuse destroyed Montana 81-34 to advance.
