Final Four repeats the history of 2008, and, by seed, they’re right. In many other ways, this Final Four is so much different.
The four No. 1 seeds in the NCAA Tournament escaped the second weekend of the Big Dance and are heading to the Final Four to cap one of the chalkiest NCAA Tournaments ever. It's the first time since 2008 and just the second time since the field expanded to 64 teams in 1985 that all four No.
Top seeds Duke, Florida, Houston and Auburn saw minimal movement atop the title odds during dominant postseason runs. Despite this year’s Elite Eight teams tying with the 2007 tourney for the lowest combined seed total (13) in tournament history, the four No. 1 seeds demolished four quality opponents by an average of 12.5 points.
The men's Elite Eight game between Duke and Alabama will air on both TBS and truTV. It will also stream on Max and on the March Madness Live app. The men's Elite Eight game between Duke and Alabama is scheduled to tip off at 8:49 p.m. ET, which is 5:49 p.m. PT.
