Still, very impressed the way Washington State was able to control the tempo for a little bit.

<p><strong><font face="times new roman,times" size="2">Writer: Andy Staples<br />Post time: Thursday, 9:12 p.m.</font></strong></p><p>CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Since CBS has probably switched you to Xavier-West Virginia, you probably missed the moment North Carolina officially crushed Washington State's spirit.</p><p>With his team trailing 43-27 and 13:07 remaining, Washington State guard <strong>Kyle Weaver</strong> drove and tossed up a floater. North Carolina forward <strong>Alex Stepheson</strong>, who looks like the taller, spring-loaded brother of the "We must protect this house" guy from the Under Armour commercials, elevated and slammed Weaver's shot into the floor.</p><p>On Washington State's next possession, Weaver drove the right baseline. A moment after he released another floater, Stepheson swatted the ball into the seats reserved for the Tennessee band. Almost every head on Washington State's bench drooped.</p>
