Ninth seed Florida State has beaten three higher seeds in advancing to the NCAA Elite 8 including taking out the #1 seed in Xavier and the 4th seed in Gonzaga in their last game. While the team is led by their offense that ranks 34th in the nation in ppg their defense, which only ranks 210th in points allowed, has been the main reason the Seminoles are still alive. FSU has won two of their three games in the Big Dance by double digits.

Their defense ranks 8th in the nation in points allowed and while only ranking 172nd in the nation averaging 73.8 ppg they put up 99 points in their last game. The last time the Wolverines faced off with the Seminoles it was in the 2013 season.
In their games held at a neutral site this season Florida State is 6-2 and Michigan is 10-1.
