It’s the biggest hoops game of the year so we continue to give the Kentucky-Louisville Final Four matchup its own headline section:

1. There’s plenty of pressure on Rick Pitino as he faces his old school.

2. Louisville’s coach says his team will have to play as Villanova did when it upset Georgetown for the national crown back in 1985 — perfectly.

3. By winning a second national crown this year — his first came with UK — Pitino would join a pretty select group of coaches.

4. Both coaches will get some nice bonuses for reaching this year’s semifinals.

5. And both schools will get plenty of pub… and more student applications as a result.

6. Kentucky is a massive favorite to bring home the national title. (Perhaps, too much of a favorite?)
