Tom Izzo will return to the Elite Eight for the first time in five years, as his Michigan State Spartans came back to beat Ole Miss in the Sweet 16 for a 73-70 victory. Izzo was clearly emotional in the immediate aftermath of the win, breaking down in tears during his postgame interview, and that energy carried over to the postgame pressers.
Speaking to reporters about his 11th trip to the Elite Eight, Izzo got honest about how this Spartan team has come together and the appreciation he has for the roster.
