Spartans, Tar Heels set for title
Posted Apr 5, 2009
Michigan State has been itching for this do-over since December. Not only is the NCAA title at stake when the Spartans play North Carolina on Monday night, April 6, Michigan State will be trying to avenge that 35-point beatdown the Tar Heels laid on them four months ago. It was the most lopsided loss for Michigan State since 1996, Tom Izzo's first year as coach. North Carolina rolled over Villanova 83-69 to set up this rematch.
