On Friday, March 27, the 1-seed Michigan Wolverines face the 4-seed Alabama Crimson Tide in a Sweet 16 matchup at 7:35 p.m. ET at United Center in Chicago.
Michigan advanced with dominant wins over 16-seed Howard and 9-seed Saint Louis in Buffalo, while Alabama beat 13-seed Hofstra and 5-seed Texas Tech to secure a fourth consecutive Sweet 16 appearance.
Alabama leads the nation in scoring offense at 91.6 points per game and has made 436 3-pointers this season, while Michigan ranks fourth nationally with 18.8 assists per game and shoots 50.3% from the field.
The winner advances to the Elite Eight to face the victor of 6-seed Tennessee versus 2-seed Iowa State. Coach Nate Oats said the Tide must "execute the game plan, make shots, protect the way to ball, find a way to rebound."
Michigan finished as a Final Four favorite after an elite regular season, while Alabama pursues a second Final Four since 2023; however, the Crimson Tide rank second-worst in defensive efficiency among remaining 16 teams at 1.023 points per possession.
