Michigan State turn things into a 47-foot game very quick and then proceeded to grind up Louisville, possession by possession, en route to its 64-52 Midwest Regional final victory in Indianapolis.
So the Spartans earn a slot in the Final Four, just 75 miles form their East Lansing campus at Ford Field in Detroit, next Saturday against the University of Connecticut Huskies.
Even playing so close to home, thought, the Spartans are going to find getting into the championship game much more difficult than it was getting to Detroit.
The Huskies beat Louisville by 17 points -- in Louisville -- during the Big East play and are much, much more comfortable playing the style of basketball that the Cardinals failed miserably at today.
Next up: North Carolina-Oklahoma . . .
