Sweet 16 Breakdown: South Region

SOUTH REGION

GAME-BY-GAME BREAKDOWNS:

10 SAINT MARY'S  vs. 3 BAYLOR
 

 Saint Mary's center Omar Samhan has shown the entire country just how good he is through the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament. Samhan is averaging 30.5 points on 24-for-32 shooting, and has been the most outstanding player of the region. If the Gaels can keep shooting the ball the way they have through the first two rounds, there's no reason they can't beat Baylor.
 
  
Saint Mary's advanced to the Sweet 16 for the first time ever.

WINNER:  10 SAINT MARY'S


1 DUKE VS. 4 PURDUE

The Blue Devils have steamrolled through the first two rounds behind terrific shooting and solid offensive rebounding. This is where their only-for-Duke, fall-out-of the-sky dream draw comes in to play, as they face a Purdue team they already defeated before the Boilers lost F Robbie Hummel. 


Purdue's Chris Kramer has led the Boilermakers to a surprise Sweer 16 run.

WINNER: 1 DUKE
