March Madness 2009 Final Four Games

March Madness 2009 heads into the Final Four weekend in Detroit this upcoming weekend. While some would say that the tournament is drawing to a close because less games are being played, the truth is that the real fun is just beginning because the stakes are higher than ever.

Back when the 2009 Men's College basketball season began, it seemed pretty evident that UNC would take the tournament, no questions asked. However, with the way that the season ended - the experts and teams alike have been asking questions. Will UNC really win the national championship? Not if any of the other teams have anything to say about it.

On Saturday April 4th, Connecticut and Michigain St. will pair up for what should turn out to be a will fought battle. Don't be surprised if Tom Izzo's Spartains add to the March Madness this year and skate their way into the championship game. They have proven themselves to be a defensive powerhouse and offensive workers as well - we saw that when they completely obliterated Louisville. However, Jim Calhoun's won't exit March Madness 2009 without a fight. They have been scrapping all year, throught the Big East tournament, and are hungry for another championship.

On the other side of the March Madness 2009 Bracket, Villonave is gearing up to play ACC powerhouse and March Madness veteran UNC Tarheels. The Tarheels have weathered the NCAA tournament well so far this year and have avoided any upsets or even close games for that matter. Villanove has not been especially strong in their past few games, and could end up succumbing to the madness by the time that UNC is done having their way with them.

March Madness 2009 draws to a close on Monday, April 6th. While there is less than a week left - there is still plenty of basketball to be played, and a national champion to crown.
