Their half of the court was far less slick than us, giving them incredible traction. I don't even want to get started on the officiating. When a kid with a scholarship to Michigan State gets his ankles broken, you know a foul was committed. Period. So, inclusion, these guys didn't want it enough.

You all know I've been a Beilein critic but I have to give him all the credit in the world for the job he's done this year.  Lose 3 starters, including the best player in the Big Ten, a 1st round draft pick, and a 1500 point career scorer, and still go into the Breslin Center and beat Izzo's best team in 15+ years.  Remarkable.  This is a damn good team that will only get better.

All that is missing is for the State News to recycle "Defeated With Dignity". After all, whereas we're not allowed moral victories, they are allowed all that they can muster if it soothes their feelings. That goes for all sports in East Lansing really.

Earlier this week I predicted MSU by 25.

Pass the ketchup. Someone hand me a fork. It’s time to eat my words.

I’ve never been so happy to be wrong in my life.

Just imagine the joy in the Michigan locker room and the sorrow in the Sparty locker room , GO BLUE! Izzo is probably crying on Dantonios shoulder right now

Probably going to stay silent for a bit, eh?   What an exceptional performance by our team today.  The defensive plan was brilliant and executed with tenacity.  Our offense in the second half--a thing of beauty.  Hats off to the kids and the coaching staff.  Just a basketball clinic today.

The inbounds play to get the ball in Rahk's hands was brilliant. Especially from a team that's not always been the best at inbounding the ball.
