How many times have two teams ever faced one another 4 times in a CBB season?

Has that EVER happened?

The last time an 8 seed won the NCAA championship was when Villanova beat Georgetown in 1985.

Georgetown had beaten Villanova 3 times that season

The championship game was played in Rupp Arena

Eta: Nevermind they only played three times that year. I was lied to yesterday on the radio.

Georgetown and St. Johns happened to play 4 times that year though.

Found proof

LSU's 1986 final four team beat Kentucky to go to the final 4 after losing to them 3 times during the season.

That's what I thought as well.

When this was asked the other day, I thought maybe Duke/North Carolina would be on the list but they almost never set them up to see each other until the NC game (unlike us vs. UofL at this point).

Gotta get past Wisky first though.

Bama-UK four times during the '85-'86 season.

Played for the SEC Tourney Title, twice in regular season and again in the Sweet Sixteen.

NCAA put at least three maybe four SEC teams in the same region.

The year UF made the championship game and lost to Michigan State, Michigan State beat Wisconsin 4 times to get there including a Final Four game.

Twice in regular season play, once in the conference tournament.
