Another game, another loss. Michigan State basketball has to be running out of excuses for underperforming at this point in the season.

The final two minutes of action perfectly summed up Michigan State’s season. The Spartans got within striking distance and could have made it a one-possession game, but two huge unforced turnovers by Joey Hauser and a foul led to a 10-point loss, 75-65.
