No team in the country -- not North Carolina, not Kentucky, not UCLA -- has done it better in the past 12 years. And all six trips have come under Tom Izzo, the hard-nosed coach who preaches defense, rebounding and physical play. "I like it more than I used to," Izzo said of playing in March. "It's even better than I thought."

Sophomore Gordon Hayward (No. 20) tallied a game-high 22 points on 7-of-14 shooting for the (32-4) Bulldogs, who are weaving a story about the overlooked and under-appreciated getting their time in the limelight, the kind of tale every underdog, from Charlie Brown to Gene Hackman, has to love.
