He and Reece Davis have been talking over the game a lot. I think they spent 45+ seconds talking about how great Izzo is and how Mich St will be tough in the tourney.
 
Games with Vitale blabbering are unwatchable. I turned of the volume three minutes in and since dvr, no Dolph/Bobby just silence and WAY better than the alternative.
 
Everyone will jump on the Michigan State bandwagon over the next 2 weeks. They will likely win 10 of their last 11 regular season games with the only loss being in OT at Purdue...because the back end of their schedule set up nicely for them. But they still lost at Wisconsin and at home to Nebraska. They won't be in my Final Four. They will end the season looking better than they really are. If they were to win the Big 10 Tournament I predict they will get a 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

They are in a good spot. Playing well and like you mentioned with their schedule... Iowa's gotta get their groove back on the road. Missing too many darn free throws and offensive rebounds. Woody needs help down there. Uthoff if there's something to nit pick with him over I'd say it's his rebounding. Sure he gets the ones that bounce to him. But I don't think he does a great job of boxing out his guy and going after the ball. Indiana may have really shown a blue print on how to beat us. Have quick guards that can penetrate & kick it out for open looks and then offensive rebound... You take away just 3 or 4 of their offensive put backs and we make 3 or 4 more free throws and we win no problem... So frustrating.
 
The past does not = the future. Just because Mich St has does it before, doesn't mean they'll do it again. This MSU team has plenty of weaknesses

There aren't many teams with the personnel to do this...and even then they probably have to play us on their home floor for it to actually work.

Edit - Keep in mind. Like Indiana...we haven't lost on our home floor all season either.
