Elite Eight of NCAA Tournament to be finalized Friday
The 2017 Elite Eight will be set following Friday's regional semifinal action in the NCAA Tournament.
The marquee matchup will see second-seeded Kentucky face third-seeded UCLA in the South Region in Memphis. The two blue bloods met earlier this season, with the Bruins beating the Wildcats 97-92 on the road.
The winner could face No. 1 seed North Carolina on Sunday, though the Tar Heels will need to get past Butler first.
The East Region - the one that busted so many brackets during opening weekend - will also pick its finalists on Friday.
South Carolina, fresh off a stunner of Duke, will play third-seeded Baylor. Wisconsin will look to follow up on an upset win over top-seeded Villanova when it faces Florida.
