2014 NCAA MEN’S BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP
April 7, 2014  | By David Bianculli

CBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

 

Saturday night, after No. 8 seed Kentucky beat No. 2 seed Wisconsin, on the sneakered heels of No. 7 Connecticut’s equally unexpected victory over No. 1 seed Florida, I asked myself, “When was the last time two such low-ranked seeds met in the NCAA Final?” The answer, it turns out, is never.  So consider this a cage match of snarling, scrappy underdogs – and anyone who still has a chance to win an office pool with these two teams is either an accurate clairvoyant or an astounding optimist.
