Final Four in San Antonio is set, so let's talk about it. Norlander and Hartzell break down the weekend that was - including a Sweet 16 and Elite 8 recap from all four regions - plus a lookahead to what on paper could be the best set of Final Four games ... ever? The guys have a disagreement on whether or not Jon Scheyer has over-achieved in his first three years at Duke (Norlander says yes, Hartzell says no), and we have on-the-ground reporting from Newark over the weekend. Gators and Auburn did the things. Houston is a monster, and you knew it was going to end like this, Vols fans. Sorry that it had to happen in the Elite 8. Retirement watch in Knoxville? And speaking of coaches, Norlander empties the notebook on everything that went down with the messy split between Maryland and Kevin Willard. From Crab Five to coach-less and AD-less in the span of a week. Tough scene for the folks in College Park!

A very special Monday night edition of CSN recapping the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament because Norlander has been absolutely grinding over the coaching carousel and we had to push the show back a cool 10 hours. Yes, the carousel is at maximum capacity, but we're here to recap the actual games from Thursday - Sunday. There is audio of the Derik Queen buzzer-beater to break Colorado State hearts, and then we're off to the races. Hartzell has his list of top 8 games of the tournament so far. Norlander absolutely loses it recapping the Mick Cronin transcript from UCLA's loss to Tennessee, and oh so much more. Do we ever need to hear from Amir Khan again? Too bad because he'll be at the Final Four. Plus the NCAA court designs have actually gotten worse. This is content we're here for, people!

Consider this your NCAA Tournament fast pass. Thirty-two games. Under 45 minutes. We hit on each one (okay, we largely ignored the 1/16 and 2/15 matchups), breakdown who is going to advance, who is primed for a Cinderella run, and at whose expense, and we make our official Final Four and national championship selections. Plus, thoughts on the field as a whole off the top, and why the bracket as it looks was a perfectly reasonable outcome, despite what some notable head coaches believed.

We have our bracket, the field is set, and now we're going to talk about it. Norlander and Hartzell spend an hour running through the teams, matchups, stories, gripes, complaints, snubs, you name it. Both guys are operating on very little rest but the bracket is out and we must respect the bracket. If you're not planning your week around games tipping at 12:15 ET on a Thursday afternoon then you need to do better, people. We made it, fam. It's Tournament time!

The countdown to a bracket is on! Megan Gauer and Rob Joyce recap Championship Weekend across the sport at the power conference level, talking about the highs of Duke, UCLA, South Carolina and TCU's tourney victories.

Head coach Vanessa Blair-Lewis jumps on to talk about the win and introduce us to the Patriots team.

Who are the last four in/first four out?
