HOW THEY GOT HERE:

Defeated Central Florida 697-466 (60%-40%) in the quarterfinals

RAP SHEET:

--Seemingly took shot after shot at the Louisville football program during the portion of the season where the Cardinals were undefeated.

--Were the only national publication to not list Russ Smith as a preseason All-American.

--Could not grasp the notion that Teddy Bridgewater's first name is not "Terry."

--Twice predicted that the Louisville basketball team would lose to SMU.

--Their poll sucks.

HOW THEY GOT HERE:

Defeated UK Tattoo Guy 1,399-234 (86%-14%) in the quarterfinals

RAP SHEET:

--Broke the frame on Russ Smith's Final Four jersey, which he had sent to his father in New York so that Russ Smith Sr. could hang it in his barber shop.

--When the jersey was sent back so that FedEx could "investigate the claim" that the frame was broken, FedEx promptly threw the jersey away.

--FedEx never found the jersey, and did nothing more than tell the Smiths they were "sorry."

One will advance to the championship in 24 hours.
