The Syracuse vs. Duke betting line had the Blue Devils as a -11.5 favorite.

Number 11 seed Syracuse stunned Michigan State.  Their shifting defense held Michigan St to just 25% shooting from the field.  The game finished close at 55-53 but the Orange will come into this game extremely confident.

Tyus Battle had 17 points while Oshae Brissett scored 15.

”No one plays zone like we do,” Brissett said. ”We’re always moving – and we challenge every shot – so teams never get easy looks against us. That’s why nothing surprises me with our defense.”

Duke had no problem demolishing Rhode Island 87-62 on Saturday.

Marvin Bagley III, the Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year, poured in 22 points to go with nine rebounds and the second-seeded Blue Devils overwhelmed seventh-seeded Rhode Island 87-62 on Saturday to earn the program’s 26th trip to the Sweet 16.

”After seeing these last couple games, these last few days of basketball, seeing what can happen, we have an idea that this tournament anything can happen,” Bagley said. ”We can’t look ahead. We’ve got to worry about now.”

And the rest of the field might need to start worrying about the Blue Devils (28-7), who will play either Michigan State or Syracuse in the Midwest Regional semifinal in Omaha, Nebraska next Friday. Duke shot 57 percent (29 of 51) from the floor, finished with 20 assists and never let the Rams (26-8) in it following a 23-5 burst midway through the first half.
