NCAA March Madness LiveNCAA

UConn and the Kentucky Wildcats play in the NCAA 2014 Final on Monday night, having both caused significant upsets to make it through to the big game.

The No. 7 seeded Connecticut Huskies and the No. 8 seeded Kentucky Wildcats were not many people's favorites to make it to the Championship game this season, but they have both exceeded expectations and now have the chance to win the coveted title.

Tonight's March Madness 2014 Final will start at 9 p.m. ET and will be shown on TV on the CBS network. The game can also be watched online through free live stream via the link provided below.

The Florida Gators, who were No. 1 seeds this year, as well as the No. 2 seeded Wisconsin, were both dumped out of the competition last week by the finalists, and for many those losing teams were the ones who were supposed to make it to the final. However, UConn and Kentucky fully deserve their places in tonight's showcase final, and neither will be fazed by the big occasion.

The Huskies of course won the national championship in 2011, and the Wildcats also managed to come through and win the big game in 2012. So these are two strong programs, and it is not by chance that either has made it to the final again.

UConn will be hoping Shabazz Napier can be in good form tonight. He has put on some stunning displays this year, and Connecticut will be hoping he has one more big game in his this season.

Meanwhile, Kentucky will be hoping Julius Randle and Aaron Harrison are able to step up and lead them to victory tonight. UConn will have to get to grips with that duo and keep them quiet if they are to snatch the win.
