The 2012 Final Four is finally about to begin, and if your love of March Madness is strictly calendar-based this is the last gig on the schedule for you and the 2012 NCAA Tournament: The National Championship will be all the way in April, which has no easily alliterative name for temporary insanity.

- No. 1 Kentucky Wildcats vs. No. 4 Louisville Cardinals—5:09 p.m. CDT, CBS
