Michigan vs Tennessee live updates, predictions, time, how to watch Elite 8 game

After being able to derail run-and-gun teams like Saint Louis and Alabama in the second round and Sweet 16, No. 1 seed Michigan will have a different challenge on its hands with No. 6 Tennessee in Sunday’s Elite Eight.

The Vols dig in on the defensive end, run two-big lineups and are the nation’s top offensive rebounding team (as evidenced in their Sweet 16 win over Iowa State).

“We understand that especially at this point of the season, any team is a challenge,” Michigan’s Nimari Burnett said. “We’re also ready to take the challenge to them as well. We look forward to a really good, physical game but also playing our style of play on both end of the floor.”

For Tennessee, this a third straight trip to the Elite Eight… but a chance to reach the program’s first Final Four.

“For me, it’s definitely an added motivation. I’m hungry for it,” Vols guard Bishop Boswell said. “Last year, I was here and we were able to get to the Elite Eight thanks to the senior guys. We weren’t able to get it done. To see their faces, it hurt absolutely last year, watching the ceremony and everything of that nature and just seeing we weren’t able to get to that point.”
