We are officially done with college basketball conference championships and the NCAA tournament tips off this week. Teams are looking to make their way through the bracket, winning six and possibly seven games, to be called the champion.

The North Carolina Tar Heels enter the field of 68 as the defending champs, beating Gonzaga back in April of 2017. They were awarded the No. 2 seed in the West Region and will take on Lipscomb in the first round in Charlotte.

For UNC, they just completed a week in which they won three-of-four games in the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament.
