Michigan State starts slow, comes up short at the wire in second straight road loss

Bloomington, Ind. — For the second straight road game, Michigan State dug itself a huge first-half hole.

Just five minutes in against Indiana on Thursday night, the Hoosiers had a 14-point lead, the building was rocking and the Spartans were in a daze. However, unlike the trip to Purdue a week-and-a-half ago, No. 11 Michigan State showed some fight.

The Spartans put together a late first-half run then eventually took the lead in the second half.
