Game Preview

The West Region will produce a second-round game ripe with NCAA Tournament history when North Carolina clashes with Michigan State on Saturday.

The big-time matchup seemed to have everyone’s attention as soon as it was clear that both teams would take care of matters in the opening round.

“The second round has always been real,” North Carolina coach Hubert Davis said. “When it gets down to the round of 32, there’s only 32 teams left. So that round is normally going to be two extremely good programs. We’re excited about the challenge of playing against a great Michigan State team.”
