In the first Final 4 matchup, we have a pair of under dogs making their way. Loyola Chicago won several tight games to continue as a Cinderella, thanks largely to good defense (ranking 19th in defensive efficiency) and excellent 3 point shooting, ranking 11th in the nation. Clayton Cluster ranks 20th in the nation overall for the Ramblers in 3 point shooting. Michigan counters with a strong defense of their own, allowing an EFG% of just 47.6. This game should be a bit grindy, with both teams having a slow tempo to compliment their defensive styles. The program gives the Wolverines a slight edge, but I wouldn't be surprised if this one went down to the wire.
