Villanova and Kansas will meet in the Caesar’s Superdome on Saturday in the Final Four of the 2022 NCAA Tournament.
Although the two schools are not historical rivals, this weekend’s National Semifinal matchup will be the fifth meeting between the two schools since the 2016 NCAA Tournament. Across that span, ‘Nova knocked off the Jayhawks in the 2016 Regional Final and in the 2018 Final Four en route to the Wildcats’ two most recent National Championships.
The two schools then played a home & home in the 2019 and 2020 with each home team winning.
