We should've won by more, considering we were favored by 30, but whatever, moving on to round two, playing Arizona State, a program with a long history of falling short of the Sweet Sixteen (one exception in perhaps 20 years with the same coach, and that was only by one game).  That isn't to say they can be ignored, but we are the legitimate favorites.

We had a halftime lead of 30, and cruised from there.  Our offense obviously was extremely efficient, with seven players in double figures.  Hopefully this is a sign that the Spartans are peaking at the right time.

Coach, I don't care what your seed is, making the Sweet 16 is something that is hard to do, glad to see you had the guys focused on taking care of business. Good luck in the Sweet 16!

Our next opponent, 12th seed Boston College, a team with a 19-10 record and no seniors, which is probably thrilled to have made it this far:

BC actually opened the game on a 14-2 run.  We pulled within 2 at the half and overtook them in the 2nd.

Coach, great game last night. We're now down to a 1 in 8 shot of being National Champions! Way to keep the guys focused on the task at hand. Good luck in the Elite 8!
