Michigan is the fourth seed in the Midwest Region of the NCAA basketball tournament.
Since the 2000 tournament, 48 teams, four each year for 12 years, have been seeded fourth in various regions.
Three of them have advanced to the Final Four, and none have won the tournament championship.
Kentucky reached the Final Four as a 4 last year.
Louisiana State did it in 2006, and Louisville did it in 2005.

Possible, but unlikely.
That's how one could sum up the Detroit Titans' chances of upsetting Kansas on Friday in the NCAA basketball tournament.

A 15 seed has not beaten a 2 since Hampton struck down Iowa State, 58-57, in the 2001 tournament.

Ray McCallum Jr. could have played anywhere in America.
Kansas, UCLA and every other big-time college basketball program wanted the former Detroit Country Day star, but McCallum chose to stay home and play for his dad at Detroit.
Now player McCallum and coach Ray McCallum Sr. are going dancing, NCAA tournament style.

Virginia Commonwealth, the Colonial Athletic Association school that rose from the First Four to the Final Four in 2011, has another chance to be the darling of the NCAA basketball tournament.
The Rams defeated No. 1-seeded  Drexel 59-56 in the CAA tournament championship game Monday and earned the league's automatic bid to the Big Dance.
In 2006, George Mason represented the Colonial in the Final Four.
VCU takes a 28-6 record into the tournament.
Drexel, now 27-6, which had a 19-game winning streak snapped by VCU, must wait until March 11 to learn whether it will get a bid to the NCAAs.
