Result: Win
This is a 10* BLOCKBUSTER Michigan State.
For a number of different reasons I expect the Spartans to keep this one close enough to at the very least sneak in through the back door down the stretch with the handful of points they've been afforded. These teams battled in last year's NCAA Tournament regional semifinal at Madison Square Garden and Michigan State would knock-off top-seeded Virginia 61-59: "We know, there's definitely got to be a revenge factor for them," MSU guard Travis Trice said Saturday. "It would be the same thing for us if a team put us out last year." As they seemingly do every year, the Spartans are playing their best ball of the entire season at the most opportune of times, Michigan State knocked off a tough Georgia team and I believe has a mental edge in today's contest as well. Virginia gets the job done with smothering defensive play, but MSU would flip the script on the Cavs last year, holding them to 35.1 percent shooting. Note that Michigan State is 8-4 ATS this year vs. good defensive teams, while Virginia is just 1-3 ATS this season when playing on a neutral court. Two proud, confident teams that are going to battle down to the wire, in this situation, all signs point to the points as the savvy move, play on MICHIGAN STATE.
