The Spartans are coming off of a win against a Nebraska team that was hotter than my friend’s sister (she goes to Florida State), and now they head to Columbus, where they will face an Ohio State team that’s gone 9-20 ATS this season. Michigan State is as poised as ever heading into the Big Ten tournament, with four wins over their last six games. After struggling to score throughout Big Ten Play, the Spartans have found offense, especially over the last four games. MSU scored 72 against Michigan, 80 against Indiana, 100 (in regulation) against Iowa, and 80 against Nebraska. With a 19-point performance against the Cornhuskers, Tyson Walker continues to solidify himself as one of the Big Ten’s best scorers, and if he plays as well as he has lately in the tournament, he will be remembered as one of Tom Izzo’s best guards.
While Michigan State is undoubtedly the better team, Ohio State is peskier than a little sibling in the back of a minivan, and they match up well against the Spartans. The Buckeyes are elite at guarding the perimeter, holding opponents to an abysmal 31.8% from beyond the arc. Making open three-point shots is a big part of Tom Izzo’s strategy for this Michigan State team. The Spartans have one of the best team three-point-percentages in the country at 39.4%, and they attempt 19.0 three-pointers per game. But then again, these teams played a little over two weeks ago, and Michigan State won by over twenty points, so you have to go with the favorite here (unless you’re a madman).
