And hopefully Devonté will regain his shooting touch for the rest of the way, and Marcus will get past what I can only attribute to a freshman wall that has suddenly loomed before him.
This game was what most of this season was against good competition— close and nerve racking, but somebody different keeps stepping up when the “usual suspects” are out of sync. Tonight we again saw what Bill Self said we would see from Malik. Svi and LG kept us in it until Malik caught fire, and Devonté kept playing D and feeding the hot hands to lead the team to another huge W.
Time for them and us to catch our breaths and prepare for the winner of Auburn v Clemson in the Sweet 16.
"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." - Mark Twain "Innocents Abroad"
