Complete game coverage: Card Chronicle Mid Major Madness

Louisville is the No. 1 overall seed in the tournament, and they're heavy favorites in this game for good reason. They had little trouble winning the Midwest region, blowing out North Carolina A&T, Colorado State, Oregon and Duke. This is their second straight year in the national semifinals and third time under coach Rick Pitino.

Wichita State won't be intimidated, however, and this isn't the first time they've faced heavy odds. They knocked out Pittsburgh, Gonzaga, La Salle and Ohio State to reach the Final Four for the first time since 1965, and became the first Missouri Valley Conference team to make this far since Indiana State in 1979.

Here's the complete schedule for Saturday's game:

Game time: 6:09 p.m. ET

Location: Georgia Dome, Atlanta, Ga.

TV: CBS (also streaming online at March Madness Live)

Line: Louisville by 11
