With 4 about 4 minutes left, Jalen Hood-Schifino from Indiana cut the lead to 9.  And then, from ridiculously deep, Isaiah Wong drilled a three-pointer.  Then, Bensley Joseph steals the ball, passes the ball to Jordan Miller, who gives it back to Joseph in the corner for another 3 pointer.  And the Hurricanes have a 15 point lead with 3 minutes to go.

Indiana’s Hood-Schifino hit a few three-pointers to try to close the gap, but the lead was too much.  The ACC co-regular season champions and last remaining team from the ACC are advancing to the Sweet 16 with an 85-69 over to the Hoosiers.

With teams like Purdue, Indiana, Virginia, and Duke, I don’t think any of us would have said only 2 teams from these 2 proud conferences would make the Sweet 16 – and those teams would be Miami FL and Michigan State.
