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

Sports Illustrated, March 15, 2022

The last time the men’s Final Four was composed entirely of teams from the top-three seed lines was way back in 2009.

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.
