Michigan player's simple explanation for why he consoled Houston player
No. 3 MI dispatched Texas A&M 99-72 Thursday night to move into the Elite Eight of the NCAA College Basketball Tournament.
Now working on a 12-game winning streak, MI (31-7) controlled the game from end to end, notching 14 3-pointers, including 10 in the first half.
On the night, Florida State shot 47 percent from the field and held Gonzaga to just 34 percent shooting, including a five-for-20 performance from three-point land.
The Michigan Wolverines are playing some of the best basketball of the season. They all average over 12 points per game.
Tyler Davis scored a game-high 24 points for the Aggies, making 11 of 17 from the field.
Parker Caracci entered in the bottom of the 8th with #5 Ole Miss leading #11 Texas A&M 5-4.
The reminder was Thursday night's rout over Texas A&M.
The Wolverines are well coached, play great defense (No. 3 in Adj. Efficiency) and they have options both outside with Jordan Poole, inside with Moritz Wagner and a bench with experience.
The Michigan Wolverines went 24-7 in the regular season and 13-5 in the Big Ten conference.
BIGGER NUMBERS: After mostly muddling through last week's opening NCAA Tournament games, the Wolverines hit their offensive stride with a 99-point thrashing of Texas A&M in the Sweet Sixteen. Wagner added 21 points (8-of-12 FG, 3-of-3 3PT) and Matthews logged 18 points on 8-of-11 shooting. Hoffman, who had not allowed an earned run to score the entire season, promptly gave up four consecutive one-out singles, the last of which got away from Foster in left and led to the Rebels' fifth and final run.

DeRozan, Lowry lead late comeback as Raptors beat Nets 116-112
Still Toronto had won 19 of its last 22. "We're not into moral victories but I did like our compete", coach Kenny Atkinson said. The game was briefly halted in the third quarter because Lowry complained that the rim Toronto was shooting on was uneven.
A&M head coach Billy Kennedy said "March Madness" is relentless and, despite such a big win four days ago, the NCAA Tournament is fueled by a roller coaster of emotions. It seemed like everything they shot went in.
Zavier Simpson did a fantastic job of getting into the lane to move the basketball, as did Abdur-Rahkman. MI just drilled 14 three-pointers against a strong Aggies defense, and they will be up against a Florida State team that will give up three's.
The Aggies committed 10 of their 14 turnovers in the first half.
Maybe if Davis, Starks and Admon Gilder all return - I'm assuming Williams is gone - Texas A&M can be that team that puts it all together at the ideal time like MI appears it's doing right now.
Below you'll find information on how to watch or stream the game.
Mann leads the Seminoles this year with 12.9 PPG and 5.5 RPG. But given the way the bracket is breaking, and how hot they are, MI has to be thinking of making a run to the championship game.
Florida State dominated Gonzaga in the Sweet 16, forcing 13 turnovers and running the Bulldogs out of the gym. They make more than 54% of their shots inside the arc and have made 36% of their 3-point attempts in the NCAA Tournament. This game will be played at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
MI logged a 57-percent mark overall (20-of-35) and 62.5-percent from deep (10-of-16) with 14 assists against just one turnover while forcing 10 A&M miscues and turning them into 15 points.
"I'm with them", he said, referring to MI fans.
