Opening Look at the Final Four

After two weeks, the NCAA Tournament has gone from 68 teams with hopes of winning the National Championship to just four. The Final Four this season includes three schools that have reached this point for the first time since the tournament was expanded.

There will also be an East vs. West feel as Oregon and Gonzaga will look to defeat North Carolina and South Carolina respectively.

Saturday the national semifinals will be played in Phoenix, Arizona at University of Phoenix Stadium with the championship game to be played Monday April 3.

Gonzaga entered the tournament 10 to 1 to win it all and now sits 7 to 5. North Carolina was 6 to 1 entering the tournament and now sits 8 to 5.

Oregon was an incredible 25 to 1 entering March Madness and is now 4 to 1, while South Carolina was a long shot at 200 to 1 and sits now at 8 to 1.
