While Round 1 of the Sneaker News March Madness Non-OG Air Jordan Tournament saw a fairly even split of close battles and blowouts, the Sweet 16 round was nothing short of a bloodbath. All eight victors made short work of their opponents without breaking a sweat with seven favorites moving on and the Tokyo23 Air Jordan V as the single upset, as its Cinderella rampage continues to snuff out some tough competitors. The Sweet 16 played out to be pretty one-sided across the board, but with a look at the Elite 8 match-ups, things should be heating back up with the quickness as soon as we tip off the voting later tonight. Get a look at the Sweet 16 results after the jump and check out a closer look at the updated bracket over on Sneaker News HD.
