The final Saturday of the regular season did not disappoint.
North Carolina's upset of Duke to spoil Mike Krzyzewski's final game coaching inside Cameron Indoor Stadium represented college basketball's biggest headline — but it was far from the only notable development in the sport. Kansas and Baylor both won and will now share the Big 12 title. Arizona won to finish three games ahead of everybody else in the Pac-12. Auburn won to secure the outright SEC title. Murray State won to extend its winning streak to 20 games and grab the Ohio Valley Conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. Colorado State completed a regular-season sweep of Boise State, which is still the outright Mountain West champion.
It was a wildly entertaining Saturday.
Hopefully Sunday will be similar.
Among the things to watch: Wisconsin can secure its first outright Big Ten title since 2015 with a win at home over Nebraska. Memphis can take a big step toward making its first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2014 with a win at home over Houston. Michigan can maybe get back on the right side of CBS Sports Bracketology Expert Jerry Palm's bubble with a victory at Ohio State. Iowa's Keegan Murray can continue his Big Ten Player of the Year push with an impressive performance against Kofi Cockburn and Illinois.
Buckle up.
The final Sunday before Selection Sunday should be a fun one. And then, on Monday, we get the West Coast Conference Tournament semifinals featuring Gonzaga and Saint Mary's,which are ranked No. 1 and No. 14 in Sunday morning's updated CBS Sports Top 25 And 1 daily college basketball rankings.
