Oddly enough, the Alamodome was also the venue the only other time all four No. 1 seeds made the Final Four. In 2008, Kansas toppled Memphis in overtime to win Bill Self’s first national title, tying the game in the final seconds of regulation with a Mario Chalmers 3-pointer after Derrick Rose missed a potential clinching free throw.

However, the March Madness bracket will have Auburn and the Florida Gators face off in the Final Four instead of the national championship game. Coach Pearl had a bit of dismay after finding out that there will only be one SEC squad that would reach the final game of the college basketball season.

The Final Four is set in the men's NCAA tournament, and only No. 1 seeds are left standing. On Saturday, Florida plays Auburn in the first game and Duke plays Houston in the second game, leading up to Monday night's championship.
