Can Michigan State State No. 1 seed seed line sneak?
After the state of Michigan had disrupted the season, he was one of the best team in the country and the conference tournament with seven games with five wins over ranking teams, two of which belong to Michigan.
The Spartans seem to be enclosed in a No. 2 seed in the NCAA tournament and hope to make a suitcase for a no. 1 seed in Indianapolis. It is a long shot that requires considerable help with the SEC tournament. In both cases, the Spartans play their best basketball at the right time and are with a tournament game from Red Hot.
Can Michigan turn things around?
In the meantime, Michigan has a spiral. After a 14: 3 launch on Big Ten Play, the Wolverines three and four of their last six lost, including the one-sided defeat against the Michigan state in the final of the regular season.
