After exorcising its 16-seed demons, No. 1 Purdue looks to continue its road to the Final Four against No. 8 Utah State on Sunday afternoon.
The Boilermakers, at least in part, avenged last year's stunning loss to No. 16 Farleigh Dickinson with an easy, 78-50 victory over No. 16 Grambling on Friday night. Zach Edey dominated with a monstrous, 30-point, 21-rebound performance, with the latter total falling one rebound shy of a career-high.
Meanwhile, the ever-important backcourt trio of Lance Jones, Braden Smith and Fletcher Loyer each drilled multiple 3-pointers.
The Aggies snapped a 10-game losing streak in the NCAA Tournament with an 88-72 romp of No. 9 TCU, securing the program's first March Madness win since 2001. Utah State, the regular-season Mountain West champions, outscored the Horned Frogs, 45-35, in the second half to pull away.
Junior forward Great Osobor, the Mountain West Player of the Year, notched 13 points, seven rebounds, four assists and two steals in a stat sheet-stuffing performance. Senior guard Ian Martinez added a game-high 21 points, while sophomore center Isaac Johnson added 19.
