UPSET: West Region MADNESS Clears Purdue's Path—Does This Virtually GUARANTEE Boilermakers Sweet 16?

Chaos shakes up the NCAA West region as Purdue’s path to the Sweet 16 suddenly clears. Shocking upsets like High Point’s buzzer-beating win over Wisconsin and Texas’s dominant takedown of BYU leave the Boilermakers facing a bracket filled with double-digit seeds. Is this Purdue’s best chance at a deep March Madness run? Nick Arvin analyzes the bracket shakeup, highlights key threats like Texas’s 7-footer and Gonzaga’s struggles without Brayden Huff, and weighs in on matchups that could decide the region. Spotlight shifts to Purdue’s matchup with Queens, fueled by surprising comments from Royals guard Nasir Mann and a press conference highlight: a motivational team dog. Nick Arvin breaks down why Queens is rallying around being overlooked and examines Braden Smith’s quest for Purdue’s assist record. Closing with breaking recruiting news, Nick Arvin reveals the commitment of four-star center Jamin Sondrup, who won’t suit up until 2028 due to a religious mission.
