The Final Four is set, and it's one of the more loaded group of teams we’ve seen in years. In this episode of The EvanMiya College Basketball Show, Evan Miyakawa is joined by Carter Elliott of Sleepers Media and former Michigan player Ant Wright to break down how Arizona, Michigan, UConn, and Illinois reached Indianapolis and preview the biggest matchups of the weekend. The show begins with one of the most unforgettable Elite Eight finishes in tournament history as UConn stunned Duke with Braylon Mullins’ last-second three, followed by a deep dive into Illinois’ impressive run behind freshman star Keaton Wagler. Later, Evan and Ant Wright analyze Michigan’s dominant tournament performance, the rise of Yaxel Lendeborg, and the heavyweight clash awaiting them against Arizona. Evan closes the show by examining the analytics behind both Final Four matchups and explains why the Michigan-Arizona game could ultimately decide the national championship.
