It’s a 2:45 pm tip Saturday for MSU.

Really cool moment tonight postgame after VCU upset UNC. VCU head coach Phil Martelli Jr. made a point to shoutout the student reporters that made the trip. Lots of great stuff this time of year, but this was a really awesome, genuine exchange.

Wow, what an incredible piece here

Student Radio Cam is one of the great developments of March Madness. Here is High Point’s Jimmy Rosselli and Griffin Wright (@JimmyandGriff)

Jeremy Fears Jr. dealt with 2x and 3x teams against NDSU. MSU teammates loved how he handled it "Sooner or later they can't have perfect coverage" Jaxon Kohler said. "Being able to stay poised and confident and comfortable making plays out of that is crucial to our team success"

Asked Tom Izzo about all the hustle plays from Cam Ward tonight, including that steal he took for a layup. “He was having some fun,” Izzo said. “You know, working hard is fun. You just gotta realize that it takes some time to realize that it’s fun.”

Up 20+ points, with 20 of his own, Carson Cooper set the directive for MSU: Don't let up. The Spartans didn't in a 92-67 win “We all want to get to a Final Four, national championship. So if that’s what it takes, I’m gonna say my piece” For @detroitnews: detroitnews.com/story/sports/c…

MSU’s Tom Izzo after the win

FINAL: Michigan State takes down NDSU 92-67 Frontcourt ruled the day as Cooper (20 pts), Carr (17), Ward (13) and Kohler (12) led the Spartans in scoring. NDSU shot 6-for-25 from 3, not enough to make it interesting after MSU's 18-2 run took over Next up: No. 6 seed Louisville

High Point upsets Wisconsin; Flynn Clayman with the WWE interview: “They said we didn’t play nobody … nobody would play us, just like they wouldn’t play Miami Ohio. But they’ve got to play us in this tournament.”

Some Duke fans in attendance here in Buffalo making a lot of nervous glances at their phones

Today's officials: Jeffrey Anderson, Olandis Poole, Justin Porterfield

📍Buffalo Spartans. Bison. No. 3 seed Michigan State vs. No. 14 seed North Dakota State. Tip-off in about 20 minutes. ✍️ Pregame reading: Coen Carr’s best dunks, as told by his Michigan State teammates: detroitnews.com/story/sports/c…

Original estimate of 4:05 is obviously out the window for MSU-NDSU. Clocks in the arena indicating about a 4:23 tip here at KeyBank Center.

Precarious WiFi here in Buffalo so I won't have live tweets for your viewing pleasure. We do have a live blog running over @detroitnews. Check it out! detroitnews.com/story/sports/c…

So uhhhh, how's everybody's bracket doin'?

FINAL: No. 6 seed Louisville outlasts USF, 83-79. Awaits the winner of No. 3 seed MSU-NDSU. Bulls hung around and made the Cards sweat down to the final seconds, but couldn't overcome 5-for-3 3-point shooting. That game was warfare.

@ConnorEaregood @drew_lenardd Kathy wasn’t a fan of my one-timers after a couple NYPD beers, and that’s okay
