March Madness is underway, with first round games in the 2024 NCAA men's college basketball tournament taking place all afternoon and evening Thursday, March 21, and Friday, March 22.

After finishing second in the SEC during the regular season, Auburn ended up taking the conference tournament championship. The Tigers' best player if 6-foot 10-inch forward Johni Broome, who in addition to his team-leading 16.2 points per game contributes 8.4 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game. In fact, Auburn is one of the best blocking teams in the country, averaging 6.2 per game.
Like Auburn, Yale improved upon their second-place finish in the Ivy League during the regular season and won the conference tournament (on a dramatic buzzer-beater no less). The big men are also the stars of Yale's team, as their leader scoring is 7-footer Danny Wolf.
The winner of this game will go on to face the winner of No. 5 San Diego State vs No. 12 UAB.
