    One of my reasons is a slow paced game and 5 points is a lot in that type of game

    Mich St really tough too but I am not laying that wood

    My initial lean was to MSU, I like their size and versatility. And of course the coaching advantage. Now i don't know. Corbin always hits these isolated big plays.

    Win or lose I agree with NC that the game will be won or lost based on how they fare on the boards. On paper this concerns me as well.

    Pitino is 9-0 in sweet sixteen, average margin of victory of 22 points


    add in revenge for 2009, and they are playing the best defense in the country the last 2 weeks. This is a no-brainer

    Coach is talking down Pitino in big games a few days ago, now he's laying 6 grand on him against a No. 1 seed. What gives? This isn't one of his better teams from a personnel standpoint. That would be the '09 squad, which was a No. 1 seed that got dismantled by MSU in the Elite Eight.
    Lol, as long as we don't get in foul trouble dieng and behannon will prove that statement to be completely wrong...

    I can't believe I didn't see this thread until just now...

    Dude, we are 27th in the nation in REbounding, they are 26th....

    We have the best Pg in the matchup, and our big guys can ball....

    Im so tired of hearing that we don't have talent... Behannon and Dieng are both NBA players... They are only Fresh and Soph and they are 4 year players...

    Let's see them guard siva off the ball screen or score down low on Dieng (2nd best shot blocker in the nation, behind A DAvis)

    Only way we lose is if Dieng get's in foul trouble early... This line is a flat out joke, it should be 2...

    CAn't wait to get revenge on this squad, since they knocked us out against when we were #1 overall seed, were are the hottest team in the nation right now and playing the best defense...

    Bring it

    is the Ville going to press the whole game? the Media in Lansing, atleast Izzo is expecting and has been talking all week about it. Thus, MSU is looking to play a fast tempo game, by breaking the press and scoring off of it - which may lead to the over being a decent play.........only ? is L'ville actually gonna press alot and make this a fast paced game?

    I can't tell who's bluffing izzo or pitino...

    When Izzo said he wants to run with us i almost fell outta my chair, it makes no sense....

    I do expect louisville to press most of the game, but I wouldn't touch the over...

    Why does it "make no sense"? MSU would always rather run. Izzo's been like that since the beginning of time. They have a reputation as a Big Ten team of half court sets and 56-52 slugfests, but they've always been at their best when they get up and down the court.

    Neither is bluffing. Pitino wants to slow the game down and Izzo wants to speed it up.

    Pitino does not want to slow the game down, are you crazy?

    We would love to run with them, that's when we are at our best...

    If we score 70 we win handily...

    I can see pressing the whole game - MSU hasn't been pressed @ all year so hard telling how they respond to that - they don't have the ball handlers like they did in 09 (not a MSU fan btw)

    Generally Izzo likes to run so....... we'll see

    Should be a good game

    Izzo want to speed it up? Bring it on. LouisvilleKid is correct, it all comes down to foul trouble. If Dieng gets into it, were done.

    I don't remember many times in the past under Izzo that MSU has run and lost, but I could be mistaken.

    I know this much: he's a better big-game coach than Pitino. I doubt you're going to "dupe" him.

    +5.5 seems like an easy bet considering Saint Louis played like trash and still covered that.

    Mich. St. weakness is their guards, not sure they can handle the Louisville D.

    Giving Pitino 5 points seems pretty easy.

    A helter skelter game would play right into Louisville's hands.


    You'd be foolish to bet against a hot team like the Cardinals right now. They will probably win this. Everyone is too busy sucking off Izzo. I love the guy too but people think he is a lock for another final four.

    Why are the Cardinals "hot" and MSU isn't?

    Pitino has been to one Final Four since returning to the college game at Louisville in 2005. MSU dominate a "better" Louisville team with a master gameplan in the regional final of 2009. I don't know if MSU is the play here or not, but Izzo gets "sucked off" because he's been to 10 Sweet 16's in 15 years and six Final Fours since 1999. The track record speaks for itself.

    SLU played like garbage. MSU obliged in the 2nd half. SLU threw up more 3 pointers that had no chance of going in than I've ever seen.

    Yeah, for what it's worth, Rick Pitino's Cardinals are 5-0 ATS in their last five Sweet 16 games.
