Minnesota defeated Louisville as coach Richard Pitino got some revenge as his father, Rick Pitino, who was once was fired at Louisville. The main reason the Golden Gophers won though was that they shot exceptionally well from the three-point line even though they had been one of the worst teams from long range in the country. The Gophers sank 11 threes and shot 50 percent overall, which is unlikely to happen again against Michigan State, which allows opponents a .379 field goal percentage. The Spartans have won six in a row and got 26 points from Cassius Winston in their win over Bradley. Xavier Tillman added 16 points and 11 rebounds and the Braves were held to 42.3 percent shooting. The Spartans made 25-of-26 free throws. Michigan State won the only meeting this season by 24 points on Feb. 9 and it's 23-9 ATS its last 32 games overall. Minnesota is 7-17 ATS its last 24 when following an ATS win and the Spartans are 20-7 ATS their lasr 32 games after any win. Take Michigan State.
