NCAA Tournament TV Schedule: Final Four

Now that VCU has clobbered Kansas, Butler has fought back to overcome Florida, UConn has narrowly escaped Arizona, and Kentucky has eliminated North Carolina, we're down the final four teams in the nation. Hard to believe, isn't it? In a matter of a only one week, we'll be crowning a national champion from a group of teams culled from four different conferences and made up of a nary a number one seed. While you'll likely be dealing with talk of Shakas and Kembas and Shelvins (oh my!) for only a few days more, you also won't have to worry about missing your favorite shows, at least for the final four round. The two games will be played on Saturday evening on CBS with the championship taking place on Monday evening. Which mid-major will get a chance to vie for the trophy? Will they be able to knock out either perennial power? Who will step their game up and win the game's MVP? Be sure to check out CBS this weekend for all types of college basketball goodness.

The national championship will take place Monday, April 4th at 9:00 on CBS. Airing in the 8:00 and 8:30 timeslots will be reruns of The Big Bang Theory and Rules of Engagement. The national championship will do some serious ratings business, but Fox will be airing reruns of House and The Chicago Code and NBC will be airing a rerun of Chuck at 8:00. There will, however, be new episodes of Castle, Dancing with the Stars, The Event, and Harry's Law.

The time has come, TVOvermind readers, to give me your predictions. Who do you think wins this thing, who do they beat, how much do they beat them by, etc. Most importantly, do you think this will be good TV or not?
