Lansing State Journals’ Graham Crouch on Michigan falling to Villanova in the National Championship Game:
Just as Villanova wrapped up its decisive win over Michigan in the national championship game Monday night, I received a text from an old friend:
“If you need a quote from an MSU alum for a column this week, here it is: ‘I feel better now,’” he wrote.
Villanova saved MSU fans from having to fully admit the basketball programs in this state are on an even plane, even if they are. The historical data, if you cut it off at the right place, is still in MSU’s favor.
In beating Michigan, Villanova saved MSU fans a lot of grief. But 'Nova also jarred a grim reminder for the Spartans. Column, for the lunch crowd. https://t.co/vMnZwACjJW
