The Wisconsin Badgers (1) and the Kentucky Wildcats (1) will battle for a spot in the championship game at the Lucas Oil Stadium in a rematch of last year's NCAA semifinal.
A year ago, the eight-seeded Wildcats defeated Wisconsin 74-73 in a Final Four Classic, with Aaron Harrison giving his Kentucky team the lead and the win with less than 6 seconds to play, USA Today reported.

The 35-3 Badgers, led by Associated Press Player of the Year Frank Kaminsky, will be looking to avenge a loss to the Kentucky Wildcats, and advance to its first title game since 1941.
"To lose in the way we did on a last-second shot, left a sour taste," Kaminsky is quoted as saying by Yahoo Sports. "It was a motivating factor to get back to this stage. Just luck of the draw we get to play Kentucky again."
Meanwhile, the 38-0 Kentucky team is trying to keep things pressure-free and keep their perfect campaign alive.
"Everybody is 0-0," Wildcats coach John Calipari said. "Whether you're Duke, Michigan State, Wisconsin or us, everybody's record is the same. We're all feeling the same thing. We all want to win a national title."
If the Kentucky Wildcats win this match, they will be one game closer to the first undefeated national championship season since Indiana in 1976. If the Badgers win they will advance to their first title game since 1941.
