At approximately 6:07 PM tonight in stunning CBS High Definition, the UConn Huskies men’s basketball team will do battle with the Michigan State Spartans for the right to play for the NCAA title against the winner of the North Carolina/Villanova game to follow approximately 40 minutes after the conclusion of UConn’s game.
It’s shaping up to be a battle of epic proportions as the two teams play contrasting styles. The Huskies have been able to put aside the distractions on their way to Detroit and let’s hope that continues today for them.
