After quite a bit of analysis over the last few days, I had come to a pretty simple conclusion regarding Michigan State’s NCAA Tournament odds. I felt that if MSU were to win just two more games, including any game in the Big Ten Tournament over a team seeded No. 10 and above, then the Spartans’ NCAA Tournament streak will continue.
Had MSU been able to rally and beat Maryland on Sunday, I would have felt quite confident that we would be seeing the name “Michigan State” appear on the board on Selection Sunday.
