Assuming we can get by MSU, what will it take for us to beat NC? I seriously doubt there is any chance without McNeal but let's assume he will play.
Assuming Jerel plays.....Do not turn the ball over, everybody to the defensive boards, get the ball out of the point guard's hands and pressure everybody else who handles it, shoot well, punch Hansborough in the nose early, preferably Jamil, root for the first ever 16-1 takedown, hope Tim Higgins is not officiating, keep Ooze out of foul trouble, Fitz and Lazar continue their improved play.....then it will at least be competitive. ;)
With Tyler's injury I think we do. Look at his numbers from the past two games.

;D hahaha, good stuff man.
I don't think we'll be blown out, but I'm not optimistic. I imagine this to be like the most recent loss against Pitt, but it would be sweet if we get everyone ???WTF'ing ??? by beating unc.
We need another monster game from Kinsella ::)
Let's first focus on MSU.
Tom Izzo (45). NCAA winning percentage: .742. Half of his first eight NCAA Tournament teams advanced to the Final Four, and seven of his 10 tourney teams have won at least one game. Caveat: Two of the past three Michigan State appearances have been one-and-done upsets at the hands of mid-major teams that made a big run (Nevada 2004, George Mason 2006).
Again, we got hosed...........
