It all comes down to this. A game for the national title.

Texas Tech and Virginia will meet Monday night in Minneapolis during the Final Four. The winner will win the first national championship of the school. It will also be the first title of Chris Beard, the coach of the Red Raiders, or Tony Bennett, coach of the Cavaliers.

The defense should be the dominant theme of the night, with Virginia and Texas Tech placing first and third respectively in the defense. The team that can find a semblance of offense could have the advantage and eventually cut the nets.
