Five Dark-Horse Teams That Could Crash the Men’s Final Four

Five Dark-Horse Teams That Could Crash the Men’s Final Four

Or No. 11 Loyola Chicago in 2018? Still, we’re going to give it our best shot. Here are five teams seeded No. 4 or lower who could make the trip to New Orleans, plus three more we considered.
