The Michigan State Spartans went into Ann Arbor tonight to face off against the Michigan Wolverines — a heated rival, and the No. 2-ranked team in the country — and came away with a blowout defeat. Michigan thoroughly dominated this contest in every facet, winning by a final score of 69-50 This was Michigan State’s sixth game in less than two weeks, and understandably, fatigue seems to be settling in for the Spartans.
In what has seemingly become a staple of the 2020-2021 Spartans, Michigan State got off to another slow start, as Michigan raced out to a quick 7-0 lead before an Aaron Henry layup finally got MSU on the board.
