| Final - 0:00.0 |
| Michigan State advances and Marquette is eliminated. Marquette is the first higher to be eliminated in the tournament's first upset. MSU 61 MARQ 49 |
| 2nd Half - 0:27.3 |
| Neitzel connects on two free throws to increase the Spartans' lead to 10 points. That should just about do it for the Golden Eagles, who were very disappointing today. It wasn't a good effort at all. MSU 61 MARQ 49 |
| 2nd Half - 0:36.0 |
| James connects on a 3-pointer and decreases Michigan State's lead to 8 points. He landed awkwardly on his ankle however and limped off the court and Marquette called another timeout. MSU 57 MARQ 49 |
| 2nd Half - 0:42.9 |
| Crean isn't one to call off the dogs easy. Coaching against good friend Tom Izzo, I suspect that Marquette's coach will continue to foul Michigan State in order to stop the clock and make the Spartans win at the free-throw line. MSU 56 MARQ 46 |
