Louisville are -10.5 favorites to win here over the Shockers. The Shockers are playing great in the tourney this year as a 9 seed but they lack depth, and against a great Louisville team it’ll be a tough game. I don’t think they’ll win it, but I also don’t think they’ll go down by DD.

Who will be the Leading Scorer at Halftime: Trey Burke or Mitch McGary / AOP
Trey Burke is averaging 15.5 PPG in the tourney, while Mitch McGary is averaging 14. Michigans other 3 starters are averaging 13.5 PPG (Tim Hardaway Jr), 13.5 PPG (Glenn Robinson III), and 12.25 PPG (Nik Stauskas)
Syracuse’s starting 5 in the tournament are averaging 13.75 PPG (CJ Fair), 13 PPG (Michael Carter-Williams), 11 PPG (James Southerland), 12.75 PPG (Brandon Triche), and 4 PPG (Rakeem Christmas).
The stats point to Burke/McGary taking this, but Syracuse has a great zone D and I think they can keep them in check, forcing the other Michigan players to score.
