So how we feeling about this matchup? I don't like it. Maybe we can keep it a game with our slow style and all that. But they seem to be pretty good and have an inside game. They are balanced with like 5 guys averaging double digits. Only a couple guys can shoot 3s for them though so they keep it within the paint mostly. Kholer and Fears are their 2 main studs. I suppose if we can slow one of them down we can take advantage of that. But they seem kinda built to play a team like us. In Iowa City I'd say maybe we have a chance but up there I'm just not feeling it. Maybe we lose 72-59 or something like that.

Probably an L but if they can hang around and not get blown out it's a victory. Make all your free throws, don't turn the ball over a bunch, and it should be fine.
People need to give BMC some patience. It's not gonna be .750 WP outta the gate and teams take time to build. With what I've seen from him in interviews and in-game so far, I trust him.
A couple things they've struggled with here and there too. I'd say that's the difference between it being a double digit difference or not.
And yeah anybody expecting miracles here should get splashed with some reality. And from what I've seen of MSU this yr Izzo has himself a squad. It kinda feels like he's due to have a monster season and then he might exit stage left after the yr. There's rumors of that being the case anyway
