The magic number for MSU against Michigan
In almost every college basketball matchup there seems to be a game-within-the-game. A seemingly obscure stat that tends to predict the success or failure of a team. This Sunday, when the Michigan State Spartans travel to Ann Arbor for their first game of the season against the Michigan Wolverines, it’s all about the number 70.
Scoring may be coming easier than ever at the NBA, but in the Big Ten, reaching the 70 point mark is anything but a given. For both the Spartans and the Wolverines, 70 points is the key to winning and losing.
