It’s time for the Spartans to make a run if they’re going to ever live up to their preseason hype.
Michigan State basketball has had a disappointing season but could change the whole narrative of the season with a run here in the NCAA Tournament. The Spartans’ potential run in March will start with a first round matchup against No. 8 seed Mississippi State.
Michigan State is the lower seed in this matchup but is the slight favorite on FanDuel by 1.5 points. The winner of this matchup will most likely face No. 1 seed North Carolina in the second round on Saturday.
Every game, Graham Couch of the Lansing State Journal provides his breakdown of the matchup with key determining factors and a prediction. So how does he feel about this matchup between the Spartans and Bulldogs?
