Maryland's season-long hopes of advancing to its first Sweet Sixteen since 2003 rose with a stirring, late-game comeback and then – just like that – collapsed after a 3-pointer in the last second by a reserve Michigan State guard destined to live in Terrapins' basketball infamy. Korie Lucious, a career 32.7 percent shooter from beyond the arc, effectively ended the careers of Maryland's three starting seniors today by beating the buzzer for an 85-83 victory that sent the fifth-seeded Spartans to St. Louis for an NCAA tournament third-round meeting with Northern Iowa on Friday.

You can try to plot a season out until you're Boise State blue in the face, but the joy is running smack-dab into things you never see coming. We offer this week No. 17 Michigan State (5-0) at No. 18 Michigan (5-0), a flower that sprouted from a dump. It would have been maize-boggling a month ago to think this Big Ten stinker in Ann Arbor would have implications beyond the campus police station or an NCAA appeals board. Michigan State started the year with seven players suspended for the Alamo Bowl in the aftermath of a brawl at a residence hall.

This Final Four has something for everyone. Duke became the only No. 1 seed to reach Indianapolis by beating Baylor, 78-71, on Sunday. Coach K returns to the Final Four for the first time in six years. West Virginia's Bob Huggins hasn't been there since 1992 with Cincinnati. WVU was last there in 1959, led by Jerry West. But Butler has the nation captivated. With its campus just five miles from Lucas Oil Stadium and its gym the setting for "Hoosiers," why would you root against the Bulldogs?

Michigan State 1. Stress patience on shot selection. Knocking down first shots will be at a premium against Wisconsin, which prides itself on shortening games. 2. Get Morris Peterson involved early. The Spartans' leading scorer admits being distracted after attending his grandmother's funeral two days ago. 3. Shake its overconfidence. State has beaten Wisconsin three times, and maintaining an edge may be the toughest obstacle. 4. Step on the accelerator. The Spartans enjoy life in the fast lane, and running eliminates breaking down the Badgers' pesky half-court harassment.

Commissioner Jim Delany expects the Big Ten to hold a championship game next season, when Nebraska joins and brings the league to 12 teams. He also says teams likely will play nine conference games instead of eight in the future to help preserve rivalries. Ohio State is the media's pick to win the Big Ten and Buckeyes quarterback Terrelle Pryor is the offensive player of the year for the second straight season. Michigan State linebacker Greg Jones was tabbed the top defensive player again, making it the first time in 12 years that both preseason player of the year picks were repeat selections.

In their minds, it's still unfolding. Korie Lucious is making his 3-pointer and slowly turning to run down court, his mouth guard dangling from his lips, as green-clad Michigan State teammates rush from the bench to greet him. For Maryland's three starting seniors, the last moments of their 85-83 NCAA tournament loss are like a ringing in their ears that won't quite be silenced. "I see it all the time," said forward Landon Milbourne, one of the three starting Terrapins for whom the Lucious shot on March 21 is the final memory of otherwise bright college careers.

Hoyas have horses Shannon Ryan Chicago Tribune That stunning loss to 14th-seeded Ohio in the first round of the NCAA tournament is going to stick with Georgetown. And nothing will make it seem less significant than an NCAA championship in 2011. That could be very possible if 6-11 center Greg Monroe comes back for his junior season. After an up-and-down season with no seniors, the Hoyas will be a steadier group, especially with one of the nation's best backcourts of Chris Wright and Austin Freeman.

INDIANAPOLIS - Duke and Butler ended an NCAA tournament to remember with a championship game you'll never forget. Butler almost did it, but Duke was just a little bit better Monday at Lucas Oil Stadium. Not by much - but enough. There was no Hollywood ending. Butler star Gordon Hayward missed two shots to win in the last 3.6 seconds, one a baseline jumper and then a 3-point attempt from near midcourt that nearly made it. The Big Dog won, not the underdog The final score was 61-59, but that will never be the end of it. Duke won its fourth national title and its coach Mike Krzyzewski moved his program into the upper tier of the upper echelon.

OK, wait, maybe this is a movie script. Duke beat West Virginia 78-57 in the second NCAA national semifinal game Saturday night, and Butler somehow did it against Michigan State 52-50 in the first game at Lucas Oil Stadium. And that sets up Butler vs. Duke for the NCAA championship in Butler's hometown. Wow. This isn't good vs. evil - it's good vs. Devil. Duke is 93-30 all-time in the tournament, and its coach is so famous he goes by Coach K. Mike Krzyzewski has 867 career victories to 88 for Butler coach Brad Stevens, who has been alive only three years longer (33)
