Florida State couldn’t overcome a poor shooting performance, multiple miscues and struggles in the paint as the Seminoles saw their run in the NCAA Tournament come to an abrupt end with a 76-58 loss to Michigan in their Sweet 16 matchup Sunday in Indianapolis.
Fourth-seeded FSU (18-7) failed to advance past the regional semifinals for the second time in the past three appearances. Top-seeded Michigan (23-4) moves on to the Elite Eight for the first time since 2018. That season, the Wolverines were the runner-up to Villanova for the national championship.
The Seminoles shot 33% from the floor in the first half, including 0-for-7 from behind the 3-point arc as Michigan built a double-digit lead at intermission.
