The Spartans won as 7-point underdogs, while the final score played under the posted total of 139. MSU is now 6-1 ATS over their last seven games.
Goran Suton had 19 points and 10 rebounds as the second-seeded Spartans played the pace game to perfection and reached their fifth Final Four in 11 years.
The Cardinals never figured it out on Sunday, and never managed to produce one of those trademark scoring runs. Earl Clark led Louisville with 19 points, but the only other player to reach double figures was backup guard Preston Knowles.
The Spartans will play the Connecticut Huskies on Saturday at Ford Field in Detroit. An expected crowd of 72,000 should give the underdog Spartans an edge. Be sure to get your NCAA basketball odds with Bodog today.
