There have been upsets in this year's edition of March Madness but No. 1 teams were the ones gracing the Final Four at the Alamodome.

Unlike the Tar Heels, the Memphis Tigers covered as a 2-point favorite in its Final Four tilt against UCLA in a 78-63 win.

The two will battle for the 2008 NCAA Division I hoops title tonight.
