The NCAA Tournament 2019 edition tipped off days ago and already the "Big Dance" has produced a number of upsets. On Sunday (Mar. 23), some of the possible Cinderellas in this year's bracket will look to move to dance at the Sweet 16. Here's a look at five teams to watch on Sunday for potential upsets.

1

Iowa Hawkeyes (vs. Tennessee) 12:10 PM ET

The 10-seed Hawkeyes are in the second round after an upset over a 7 in the first round. They'll try to do it again, this time against a tough No. 2 seed in the Tennessee Volunteers. Iowa heads into the game an eight-point underdog.

2

UCF Knights (vs. Duke) 5:15 PM ET

The storyline is already there for the Knights as they head into battle against the No. 1 seed Duke Blue Devils. Their 7-foot-6 center Tacko Fall put top NBA prospect Zion Williamson on notice, making headlines. It's going to be interesting to see how the Duke star and his teammates play against the big man. UCF is a 13.5 points underdog for this one.

3

Liberty (vs. Virginia Tech) 7:10 PM ET

It's a battle of Virginia teams with VA Tech hoping to continue the trend of ACC teams moving on. The Flames will look to become an early Cinderella story, with a potential Duke matchup looming. The Hokies are favored by 12.5 points.

4

Ohio State (vs. Houston) 8:40 PM ET

A lot of brackets out there have Houston getting to at least the Final Four this year. That puts quite the pressure on a No. 11 Ohio State Buckeyes basketball team. They'll only be six-point underdogs in this one based on their impressive talent and coaching.

5

UC Irvine vs. Oregon 9:40 PM ET

This game is the battle of Cinderellas with the No. 13 Anteaters and a No. 12 seed Ducks team fighting for a spot in the Sweet 16. Right now, the Ducks are 4.5-points favorites in what should be an entertaining end to a weekend of March Madness.
