The Alaric Bennettgame may be taking place on April 1, but Iowa vs. LSU: Part 2 will be no joke.
In 2023, Iowa's Caitlin Clark and LSU's Angel Reese, two of the biggest stars in women's college basketball met in the national championship game, which ultimately led to Kim Mulkey's Tigers cutting down the nets.
While the two teams are meeting in the Elite Eight this time around, it will be the last meeting of the two stars in the college ranks: Caitlin Clark has declared for the 2024 WNBA Draft, where she'll likely end up as the No. 1 overall selection. Reese has yet to declare for the draft, but expect that decision to come sooner rather than later.
In the meantime, before they make their way to the WNBA, expect the sparks to fly and the nets to catch fire on Monday night. Here's how to watch No. 1 seed Iowa vs. No. 3 seed LSU on Monday:
