The drama of college basketball's 2026 March Madness is about to unfold in the coming weeks and fans are hopeful of filling out the rare perfect bracket. However, this year's drama on the court presents many opportunities for top teams to disappoint during the NCAA Tournament.

A long way from Miami, the Big 12 Tournament championship game between Arizona and Houston looks like the best game of college basketball's final weekend before the NCAA Tournament. Even DJ Khaled came out to see it.

Houston basketball head coach Kelvin Sampson said he does not think superstar freshman point guard Kingston Flemings feels pressure.

Houston basketball held on to win a close game against the BYU Cougars in the quarterfinal round of the Big 12 Conference Tournament.

Arizona stands above the rest of the Big 12 after winning the regular season title and appears to be a lock for a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament. The Wildcats went 29-2 this season and the two games they dropped came in early February against Kansas and Texas Tech — two very good teams that could make March Madness runs of their own.
