Well, first things first: The Connecticut women’s team lost their 111 game winning streak in the Final Four last night on an overtime buzzer beater, and that is BANANAS.
It happened. It really happened.

I mean, WHAT.
Anyway, on to the men’s Final Four on Saturday night. Please go check out the SB Nation Final Four preview for an in-depth look at all four teams that will be fighting for a spot in Monday’s national championship game. There’s a hub page with a look at all four squads and you can click through to a deeper dive on each one from there.
I’m torn on who to cheer for tonight. I know I want Gonzaga to beat South Carolina (sorry/not sorry, Gamecocks), but I still haven’t settled on the late game. I think I’m still cheering for North Carolina just to pour cold water on the “ACC BAD” takes, but it would be really fun to have Oregon in the national championship game.
Both games will be televised on CBS and streamed on March Madness Live.
All times Central
5:09pm: #1 Gonzaga Bulldogs vs #7 South Carolina Gamecocks
7:49pm: #1 North Carolina Tar Heels vs #3 Oregon Ducks
