The Final Four tips off Saturday night from Minneapolis, Minnesota.
No. 5 Auburn vs. No. 1 Virginia will play the first game, while No. 2 Michigan State vs. No. 3 Texas Tech will play the second.
The Auburn Tigers enter the Final Four having knocked off three straight powerhouse programs: Kansas, North Carolina and Kentucky. There may not be another team as hot either. Virginia, however, will be a challenge with its defense, but Auburn presents its own problems from three-point range.
