Maize Meets Billikens in a High-Stakes NCAA Second Round Showdown

No. 1 seed Michigan heads to Buffalo to face No. 9 Saint Louis in a Second Round matchup after routing Howard. Saint Louis enters with elite 3-point shooting (40.2% by the article) and a tempo around 71.2, offering a test with perimeter firepower and dribble-hand-off actions. Michigan’s expected edge comes from a stronger frontcourt and transition game, but the Wolverines must guard shooters and avoid turnovers to advance; tip is Saturday at 12:10 p.m. ET on CBS.
