After beginning with 68 teams a few weeks ago, the NCAA Tournament pool is down to just two teams who will battle it out for glory on Monday in Indianapolis.
UConn and Michigan are the last two standing, with the Wolverines favored to win their first national championship in 37 years but the Huskies seemingly unsinkable on this stage under Dan Hurley.
Michigan looked like a buzzsaw in its semifinal win over Arizona, leading the Wildcats by as much as 30 even as Yaxel Lendeborg battled injuries and early foul trouble. Lendeborg won't be at 100 percent on Monday night, but he pledged to play as he and the Wolverines chase immortality.
For Hurley and the Huskies, the chance to cement a dynasty awaits. UConn is pursuing its third title in four years, which would catapult Hurley into historic conversations as one of the most successful coaches in college basketball history.
Here's what you need to know about Monday's championship matchup between UConn and Michigan, including broadcast information and start time.
