Wow. What a great game. Wow. My head’s still reeling from Michigan State’s 64-52 dismantling of Louisville. The pride of Lima, Ohio, Travis Walton’s blue collar effort on Terrence Williams was textbook. The confidence of Durrell Summers to nail big shot after shot in the second half. Goran Suton continuing his inspired NCAA run with passes, rebounds and huge shots. The emergence of Draymond Green. And the game played by Kalin Lucas, who effectively dictated the game to the Cardinals, the beast of east. As a team, the Spartans broke the will of Louisville.
The gold standard of Big Ten coaches, Tom Izzo had his team prepared and his charges responded with one of the most complete games against a great opponent I can recall. They played with purpose, confidence, composure and aggression, and that’s not easy to do, especially against a team with the talent of Louisville. The Spartans are clicking. Congratulations to the pride of the Big Ten, the Michigan State Spartans, who head back home to play for it all.
