Sparty are such assholes, they been squeken by teams in the big ten even when they were healthy, and now that the game doesn't matter they loose.

This can't be real, can it?

#6 Kansas 69
#25 Texas 81
#7 Michigan State 60
Georgetown 64
Baylor 76
#8 Oklahoma State 70
We're at #10 right now. Not that it matters all that much, but if we beat Indiana tomorrow, we're likely to climb quite a bit in the AP poll.
February 1st, 2014 at 6:29 PM ^
But yeah, it means next to nothing at this point in the season.
February 1st, 2014 at 6:34 PM ^
Yes and no. While our ranking doesn't matter, these are the types of teams that we'll be up against for tournament seeds in a few weeks. It's good to see them lose because it makes our resumes stronger than theirs, comparatively (though I guess it's debatable whether we wanted Texas or Kansas to win).
February 1st, 2014 at 7:12 PM ^
I agree that it relatively helps in that perspective of tourney resumes. But I'd rather the team we play 2-3 times (or maybe beat 2-3 times) have the best record they can.
February 1st, 2014 at 6:35 PM ^
The more seasons we climb in the top 10 of the rankings, the better it is for Beilein's recruiting.

it only really matters for bubble teams and the seeds they end up getting.
February 1st, 2014 at 6:32 PM ^
Judging by the OP's score so far, well...eh...I guess I'm just here to look around. Carry on.

Always good to have Staee lose. We dont have to worry about anyone else at this point, just win baby!
February 1st, 2014 at 6:51 PM ^
Didn't catch any of it. How was Izzo on the injury whining?

Tom Izzo's insolence brought down the wrath of 2014.
February 1st, 2014 at 7:16 PM ^
Remember, MSU was playing with Keith Appling's one functioning index finger on his left hand, Gary Harris's desicated remains due to over exertion, and 12 walk-ons, while Georgetown was rolling witha Space Jam-style lineup Ewing, Mourning, AND Mutombo in the front-court, Iverson and Sleepy Floyd in the backcourt, and Roy Hibbert off the bench.

i knew they were in trouble when izzo mentioned his pre game porage was too hot...
waaaay too much "this is bad for michigan". a loss for sparty is good for michigan. seeding is a big deal, but last year we were fine as a 4 seed, and we're at least on pace for that. no one knows how it willl shake out, but we do know sparty just lost to a mediocre team.
enjoy it, forgodssake.

I don't think this matters that much in the grand scheme of things; the narrative is that MSU is down two major pieces, and it was a close loss. Maybe if they continue to drop games it will matter, but this squad has some nice scalps that aren't going to be diminished as the year progresses, and if anything this may highlight how strong UM's win was given it was on the road.

February 1st, 2014 at 10:37 PM ^
when we can't posbang a MSU loss. Michigan's destiny is in Michigan's hands, not MSUs.
February 1st, 2014 at 10:39 PM ^
losing especially when they trot out just gawd awful uniformz thinking they are sweet.
February 1st, 2014 at 10:45 PM ^
Hallowed be thy name.

Go blue!

wrong that I am smiling?

Anyone who doesn't relish the pure joy of Sparty losing because they're worried about SOS's and RPI's has really lost a lot of what being a college sports fan is about.
I am so damned sick of the conference kumbaya crap. I will always love Ohio or little bro' losing at anything unless there is some very direct and significant benefit to us in their winning. And even then there will be mixed emotions.
February 2nd, 2014 at 11:00 AM ^
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeexactly.
"but what will the computers think?!?!?!?"
puh-lease.
February 2nd, 2014 at 10:42 AM ^
might want to consider MSU's unis. The truth is that the simple act of constantly rearranging these things tends to yield more crap than goodness. Many of the same factories pumping the shit out, a lot of the same materials in use, a lot of the same child labor putting the stripes on and the swooshes. Still, if you're absolutely determined to salute one flag instead of the other every time it's run up the pole. . .
