A tale of two halves would probably best describe Michigan State basketball’s 79-60 win over San Jose State on Thursday night in East Lansing.
Michigan State raced out to a 16-2 lead before San Jose State even knew what happened and then continued to dominate until halftime, holding a 46-23 lead at the break. That healthy lead disappeared rather quickly in the second half as San Jose State put together a quick 8-0 run in the opening minutes and even cut the lead down to as little as 10 with under four minutes left.
From there, Michigan State pulled away again, pushing the lead back to 19 when the final horn sounded.
