INDIANAPOLIS — Who will cut down the nets at Lucas Oil Stadium?
ESPN college basketball reporters Jeff Borzello and Myron Medcalf break down keys for Michigan and UConn in Monday's national championship (8:50 p.m. ET) and make their predictions below.
Anyone who watched Yaxel Lendeborg after he sustained a left MCL sprain and left ankle sprain Saturday could tell that he wasn't 100%. It's unclear how much the All-American, who is expected to play after completing only 14 minutes of action against Arizona, could be limited. Either way, Michigan could use the boost it received from Mara in Lendeborg's limited availability in the semifinal.
What time is UConn vs Michigan in national championship game? How to watch, stream
Michigan and Connecticut will square off for a national championship on Monday, April 6, and both teams have taken much different paths to get here.
The No. 1 seed Wolverines have defeated every opponent by double digits in the NCAA Tournament so far and are coming off a pair of massive wins against No. 6 Tennessee (95-62) and No. 1 Arizona (91-73), handing the Wildcats their worst loss of the season by far.
No. 2 UConn, meanwhile, upset top-seeded Duke in the Elite Eight on a game-winning 3-pointer from Braylon Mullins before turning around and controlling the game against No. 3 Illinois in their 71-62 win. UConn and coach Dan Hurley are going for their third national title in the past four years, as Hurley looks to cement himself as one of the premier coaches in college basketball history.

Michigan students cram in homework before big game in Indianapolis
Indianapolis — Hours before Monday night's NCAA men's basketball championship game and about 270 miles away from campus, University of Michigan students were cramming to finish assignments in the lobby of the team hotel.
Connor Couch, a junior in the university's Ross School of Business, took up a table in the lobby with a posterboard and markers. Although he had several assignments, including the posterboard due the next day, he said there was no way he couldn't be in Indianapolis to watch the basketball team attempt to win their first championship in decades.
"My best friend got free tickets to the game, that's something you can't pass up," he said. "It's a once-in-a-lifetime game."
