Little Caesars Arena was nearly full for the game, mostly of Michigan State fans. MSU's campus is only about 90 minutes from Detroit.
DETROIT — Less than 48 hours after playing lockdown defense against high-powered No. 6 seed Texas Christian, Syracuse (23-13, 8-10 Atlantic Coast) beat No. 3 seed Michigan State (30-5, 16-2 Big 10), 55-53. A ferocious defensive effort by SU sent the Orange to the Sweet 16 in Omaha, Nebraska, next week, to play No. 2 seed Duke.
Here are the best images from Sunday’s game.
