    POSSIBLE FINAL: Tennessee vs. Michigan State

    STORYLINES
    1. The winner of this event zooms into the top five in the polls. The loaded field has teams ranked Nos. 10-13 in the Rivals poll (Tennessee, No. 10; Georgetown, No. 11; Michigan State, No. 12; and Gonzaga, No. 13).
    2. Two coaches who've won national titles square off in the first round in Tom Izzo and Gary Williams. You also have four guys pointed toward joining the ranks of championship coaches in Bruce Pearl, John Thompson III, Travis Ford and Mark Few.
    3. Can Siena play spoiler? The Saints, who went 23-11 last season and stunned Vanderbilt in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, return all five starters. The Vols had best be ready for the opener.</div>
