Michigan has cruised through the NCAA Tournament, winning each of its three games by double digits. It is now up to the Volunteers of Tennessee to stop Michigan’s run to the Final Four. Tennessee is the lone SEC team in the Elite Eight, carrying the flag for the conference. The Volunteers have knocked off Virginia and Iowa State, two of the top seeds in this region, in their last two games. This should be a great battle between the No. 1 seed in the Midwest Region and the No. 6 seed.
