Are more double-digit seeds coming soon to the March Madness Sweet 16?

Sunday's NCAA tournament second round was weird and wild from start to finish, with Loyola Chicago starting things off by handling top-seeded Illinois and upsets by No. 11 seed Syracuse, No. 15 seed Oral Roberts and No. 12 seed Oregon State to mean this week's Sweet 16 will feature some clear underdogs. Another double-digit seed will advance on Monday -- the 11 vs. 14 matchup of UCLA and Abilene Christian ensures it -- and No. 13 seed Ohio and 10-seed Maryland also will have opportunities to continue onto the second weekend.

Will a 2021 NCAA tournament that has been deliciously unpredictable through its first four days continue the trend into its fifth?
