East Lansing — Just three games into the basketball season, Michigan State already has experienced its share of ups and downs.
The emotional roller coaster started just a couple of weeks before the season began as the Spartans learned they’d be without senior guard Joshua Langford until at least January as he continued to work back from the broken foot that cost him all but 13 games last season.
It continued with the close loss to Kentucky in the Champions Classic, a 1 vs. 2 matchup to open the season that gave the Spartans their fourth straight loss in the marquee event.
