It’s a wide open college basketball season, so more fanbases than ever have a realistic shot of making the Final Four. March Madness starts on March 17th, and here’s your handy guide to catching action in the East, West, South, and Midwest.¬†
The NCAA’s selection committee is starting to give us details on how the March Madness NCAA bracket predictions might look on Selection Sunday. It’s highly unlikely Syracuse is in the field of 68, but there’s still reason to follow as a college hoops fan.
The tournament is always a great event to take in at the arena. How do you find your way to the Final Four? Here’s the full coverage. 
When and Where is the 2020 March Madness Final Four Will Take Place?
The Final Four (semifinals and finals) will take place on April 4th and 6th in Atlanta at Mercedes-Benz Stadium (a city Syracuse made the Final Four less than a decade ago). Georgia Tech is the host school.
How Do We Get There?
Despite the randomness of this college basketball season, the structure is still the same as it’s always been. Win the East, South, Midwest, and West and you’re headed to the Final Four.

Who Will Be This Year’s Cinderella?¬†
With a crazy season and wide open field, the candidates are deep. These are the schools that capture the nation’s attention and become the team we all root for when SU isn’t there, and many live forever as the darlings of the NCAA tournament. Here are some of them.¬†
George Mason. In 2006, they took out UNC, Michigan State, and UConn in one of the all-time great runs ever. 
Butler. Brad Stevens took this school to back-to-back championship games and then parlayed that into the Celtics job.
VCU. They went from First Four to Final Four with “havoc.”
Loyola-Chicago. Sister Jean became a household name in one of the most unpredictable runs ever.  
Villanova. The Cats 1985 title still ranks as perhaps the most unlikely champion ever.
Takeaway
2020 March Madness. Strap in. Even if Syracuse doesn’t make it to the Field of 68, this year’s tourney will make for great theater.
