Elite Eight in Place

Last night's games yielded only one thriller, but the stage has been set for some juicy matchups today and tomorrow. Michigan State, rallying from 13 points down, came back to defeat the defending champion Kansas Jayhawks. The rest of the games went as expected. Oklahoma annihilated Syracuse, who looked like their six-overtime victory from two weeks ago finally caught up to them. UNC continued their domination, as Ty Lawson once again made spectacular plays on an injured toe. Louisville had the easiest go of it, wiping the floor with Arizona. One of the best games to look forward to? The battle of the big men that will go down in the paint as beastly Tyler Hansborough of UNC faces off against beastlier Blake Griffin of Oklahoma.
