Another successful week of Michigan State basketball is in the books, and the Spartans are looking like one of the best teams in the country.
Although “experts” pegged Michigan State as the fifth or sixth-best team in the Big Ten to begin the season, and barely an AP Top 25 team, Tom Izzo has done what Tom Izzo does: win. The Spartans are 5-0 on the season with two top-15 wins and they picked up their second ranked victory on Tuesday in the Champions Classic over Kentucky. That win, coupled with a 28-point victory over Detroit Mercy, should move the No.
