The playoff term Elite Eight has been popularized to refer to the final eight teams in the NCAA Division I Basketball Tournament, who play in the final game of each of the tournament's four regional brackets. The winners advance to the Final Four.
The NCAA has also trademarked Elite Eight as a reference to the final rounds of the men's and women's NCAA Division II Basketball Tournaments. Unlike Division I, the finals of both Division II tournaments consist of eight teams, meeting at a predetermined site.
