Florida vs Dayton:

The Dayton Flyers are feeling very confident and loose with the upsets they've already pulled this NCAA tournament. They're also ready to wreck what's left of anyone's bracket with their greatest challenge ahead and a trip to the Final Four on the line.

Enter the Florida Gators, the overall top seed.

While the 11th-seeded Flyers already have exceeded expectations going into Saturday's South Regional final, the Gators are driven too. They talk of chasing greatness, trying to add to a 29-game winning streak that's the best in school history. Florida also is back in the Elite Eight having lost here the past three years.

"We're just very blessed and fortunate to be a team that can put themselves in this opportunity to play for a Final Four again," Florida senior Patric Young said Friday. "Going to prepare and do the best we can, especially as a senior class, because it's our last go-round to make it to that next step."

Arizona vs Wisconsin:

The Wildcats (33-4) have not advanced out of the regional in Anaheim in three previous tries, dating to 1998. With eight weeks at No. 1 and 21 straight victories during the season, they want to deliver for Miller, who has restored the program's luster in his five years.

"What we have done during the season has validated how good we are," said 7-foot center Kaleb Tarczewski, who was in foul trouble in their semifinal comeback win over San Diego State.

The Badgers (29-7) haven't been to a Final Four since 2000, shortly before Ryan took over in Madison. They've reached just one regional final during 13 straight trips to the NCAA tournament, making it every year since Ryan assumed control of a program where he was an assistant from 1976-85.

He turned 69 earlier this week, and the team is feeling a sense of urgency to deliver for a coach, who in the words of guard Josh Gasser, is "getting up there."
