The Final Four showdown tips off Saturday at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.

Chicago-Loyola’s remarkable run continues against No. 3 Michigan. While previous underdogs have lost in the semifinals, the Ramblers are hopeful they can get another win.

"Why not us?" Ramblers coach Porter Moses told The Associated Press. "You have to have high-character guys that believe to truly do that."

Top seeded programs Villanova and Kansas also tip off Saturday, with the winner a likely favorite in the NCAA Tournament Championship.
