A mascot game between the Ohio State Buckeyes and Syracuse Orange in NCAA March Madness 06 with named rosters. I did this since they were the first and last teams to lose the NCAA basketball national championship in Division I men's basketball in a traditional basketball arena as part of the Final Four where the Ohio State Buckeyes lost the championship game to the Oregon Webfoots (now Ducks) at Patten Gymnasium in Evanston, IL in 1939 and the Syracuse Orange lost the championship game to the Kentucky Wildcats at Continental Airlines Arena in East Rutherford, New Jersey in 1996. Since then, it has been taken place exclusively in domes. However, when the 2020 tournament was canceled because of the pandemic, it marked the first time since 1996 that there was no NCAA Final Four in a domed stadium.
