The ending especially was crazy for the Jayhawks, who were down 13-9 in the fifth set but got the last six points to advance.

So here are your Final Four pairings:

The Gophers, 30-4, the Big Ten champs, and No. 2 overall seed, vs. Texas, 29-2, the Big 12 champs, and No. 3 seed in Thursday's first match. ... This is the favorite, Minnesota, vs. the team that's always there in Final Four in recent years.

Then Nebraska, 30-2, the Big Ten runner-ups, and No. 4 seed, vs. Kansas, 30-2, the Big 12 runners-up, and No. 9 seed. ... This is the home state favorite vs. the tournament Cinderalla.
