Michigan-Wisconsin, Duke-UNC and other men's basketball rematches we want to see during Champ Week

Welcome to Champ Week, that frenzied stretch of college basketball between the end of the regular season and the NCAA tournament — otherwise known as the best postseason in American sports.

A multitude of leagues will send their lone representatives to the NCAA tournament via conference tournament title games this week. The results of other conferences will help teams on the bubble secure at-large berths or, if they stumble early, cost them better seeding and matchups in the national tournament. Some of the top teams are vying for high seeds and hoping another significant win or two will enhance their arguments.

Champ Week is also when we get to see a repeat of memorable matchups from the regular season: an opportunity for teams to avenge losses, hold on to win streaks or keep rivalries — deep-seated or nascent — alive. The 2021-22 men's college basketball season saw a lot of action, and we can only hope this week will deliver the same.

Here is a list of the conference tournament games we hope to see this week during the buildup to Selection Sunday.

When we could see it: Big East tournament semifinals (Friday, 9 p.m. ET, FS1)

Now, it all comes full circle with UConn's recent return to the Big East in 2020.

The two teams split their series during the regular season — you remember the second of those, in which current Huskies coach Dan Hurley got ejected from his home court and
