They have played a ton of basketball in the last two weeks. Add in the huge media commitments and the bruising style of play by S.L.U. and it is not shocking they gassed.

Totally. And it sucks they have to go all the way out to Phoenix and play on Thursday but oh well. I'm just a little concerned about how much they have left.

Doesnt Louisville play an up tempo game and have a days rest on them? Not that it matters. This team won the Big Ten, made The Sweet 16 and anything else they accomplish is gravy.

Duke was placed there as well if I am not mistaken. They are the darling of college basketball even though they are also the most hated.

Yeah, LOL!

can they just fly out to phoenix now?

Rest up for thursday.

They play a louisville team that is definately up tempo.

Should be a much better watch then the garbage put on display today.

really? theyre a 1 seed.

I'm worried since we have no depth at this point...just Nix, Trice and Kearney off the bench - and I 'm only comfortable with Nix getting more then 10 minutes of that group...I didn't think Dawson going down would hurt us that much, but now looking at it, it's much bigger than I thought. I think they can get to the Final Four, but they'll be lucky to stay within 10 of UK.

I watched them play, and I wasn't too impressed. They seem streaky, but damn, they pressure the hell out of the ball.

So if MSU gets to the Final Four Draymond will have gone in 3/4 years right? With literally no other nba caliber players on any of those teams. Pretty ****ing impressive for Green and Izzo.

What has happened to gauna and byrd??

And it looked like they were physically and mentally gassed today.

It was nice to see them push thru.

I like their matchup with louisville, they should be able to get good looks at the hoop as well as some nice fast break opportunities.

really? theyre a 1 seed.

They were literally an afterthought at the beginning of the year. they were unranked and won the Big Ten, had the most wins against ranked teams in the country, lost their best defender and still made the Sweet 16.
