- THIRD ROUND, MARCH 28th
MSU v Memphis 9:57pm EST
My Take :
Welly welly well well. Look who's in the sweet 16?
How are those Spartans going to fare against Elvis' favorite bball team, Memphis? I can only hope for good things. Finally got a chance to watch them and Memphis looks big, fast and tough, but State is playing smart, quick and deep. The big difference will be turnovers and free throw shooting. Memphis only hits like 55% from the charity stripe and State hits almost 80%. With our depth at the big man position, I think we run them up and down the court, push it inside and try to get their big men in foul trouble. Come on Spartans!
