March Madness 2022: Breaking down Michigan State basketball's NCAA tourney path in West

USA TODAY Sports breaks down the NCAA Tournament West Region:

Best first-round matchup: Michigan State-Davidson. The Spartans are limping into the tournament with six losses in their last 10 games. Getting a No. 7 seed was a gift from the committee, however they didn't get to avoid a difficult opponent. The Wildcats might not have anyone at the same level of famous alum Stephen Curry. They do have a team that is in the top 10 in three-point shooting, led by Foster Loyer. He and Hyunjung Lee will be bombing from the outside in this game.
