Michigan State basketball: Offense wakes up in win over FGCU

Tom Izzo wasn’t happy after the game, and it wasn’t exactly from his offense’s performance. It was his defense and the constant rule changes by the NCAA that slow down the game and force officials to call it tight, ruining the flow.

The Hall of Fame head coach didn’t have anything bad to say about the offense, however, as his Spartans totaled 106 points in the 24-point win.

Michigan State carried the momentum over from the second half against Kansas when it accounted for 51 points and out-scored the Jayhawks by nine points. The Spartans scored 59 points in the first half against Florida Gulf Coast and then 47 in the final 20 minutes.
