Stories abound in this as we prepare to crown a champion. Kansas coach Bill Self wants to secure his second KU championship almost 14 years from the day of his first and only one with the Jahocks. The chance for a title comes two years after his team would most likely be the No. 1 seed in the tournament that was canceled amid the COVID-19 pandemic. For North Carolina, coach Hubert Davis also aims to make history by becoming just the fifth first-year coach to ever take a team to a title match in its first year. His Tar Heels are on the verge of becoming the second team to ever win a championship as No. 8 seed – a company held only by the legendary Villanova of 1985. No team with the lowest seed has ever gone all over the bracket. Our team of experts has options for the final of the historic season on Monday, both directly and against the spread.

(1) Kansas vs. (8) North Carolina
9:20 pm | TBS, March Madness Live: Kansas appeared to be in top form on Saturday, as it not only ousted – but disbanded – No. 2 Villanova in a dominant appearance. Ochai Agbaji was at the height of his power, David McCormack owned the paint and the Jayhawks reached the national final. UNC, on the other hand, is perhaps the most emotional victory of any team in Final Four history, having eliminated Duke and ended Coach K.’s historic career. Will Pitch Heels be able to maintain that momentum in a short recovery? I think they will be ready at the moment to keep this one relatively close, but it is very good to keep it at 4.5 against this KU team. I put the number.
