March Maddness: Predictions for Day 2 of Elite 8

We are now in the Elite 8 stage of March Maddness. Saturday's games were awesome, as Wisconsin and Kentucky moved on to the Final Four. Let's get into what I think will happen today.

2:20
#4 Louisville vs. #7 Michigan State
Neither of these teams were expected to be here, but they are both worthy because they play smart, mistake free basketball. I expect a close game, but Michigan State's defense and guard play will frustrate the Cardinals, as they are a poor shooting team. For this reason, I'm picking Michigan State to move on to the Final Four. 

Winner: Michigan State 

5:05
#2 Gonzaga vs. #1 Duke 
This game as hard to predict, as I think Kyle Wijlter and Gonzaga match up well against Duke because of their size. However, I think that Tyus Jones and Quinn Cook are the best back-court in the country, and that will propel Duke to victory in a very, very close game.

Winner: Duke
