- ... that the 2021 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship Game between Baylor and Gonzaga was the first since 2005 to feature the top two overall NCAA Tournament seeds? Source: Gonzaga vs. Baylor for the NCAA Tournament championship is the perfect way to end an imperfect season
- ALT1:... that Gonzaga was considered a "massive favorite" to win the 2021 NCAA tournament by ESPN and Yahoo!'s platforms, but lost to Baylor in the national championship game? Source: Baylor Romps Past Gonzaga for National Title
- Reviewed: To be completed
- Comment: Article is also nominated for ITN here; if both nominations are successful, the ITN blurb will likely exit the main page before this is posted.

- It's already been posted on ITN. It's good to have covered your bases, but an WP:ITNR item was pretty much going to get posted barring page quality issues.—Bagumba (talk) 08:51, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

1. Well-written
- "They were awarded an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament, and received the No. 1 seed in the South Regional." remove the comma
- "The pre-game and post-game shows included analysis by Greg Gumbel, Clark Kellogg, Kenny Smith, and Charles Barkley, Seth Davis, and Jim Jackson" This could be re-written into two sentences by separating the analysts for the pre-game and post-game shows (ex: The pre-game show included analysis by Greg...., and the post-game show included Charles...")
- Done both. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 21:04, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Improved to Good Article status by PCN02WPS (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 21:21, 13 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/2021 NCAA Division I men's basketball championship game; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
General: Article is new enough and long enough |

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation |

QPQ: Done. |
Overall: For the main hook, I think we are going with "NCAA tournament" (lowercase) now, since the tournament pages got moved to lowercase "t".[1] Also, would something like "... top two overall seeds of the NCAA tournament" read better, or even just plain "feature the top two overall seeds of the tournament"? —Bagumba (talk) 11:06, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
