On the other side of things, Texas Tech’s coach, Chris Beard, had praise for Izzo and his program.
Texas Tech coach Chris Beard calls Tom Izzo "one of my idols" and uses terminology like "Michigan State toughness" and "Tom Izzo rebounding" in his program. Spoke with Izzo this morning after reaching out to congratulate Izzo on getting to the Final Four. "It was pretty cool."

Texas Tech and MSU are scheduled to face off this Saturday at 8:49 pm.
The Spartans will face a tough test in a strong Texas Tech defense, but MSU has been impressive throughout the tournament. What do you think? Can the Spartans win this one and make it to the finals?
