Michigan State fans had a great weekend. Not only did the Spartans beat a highly-ranked Michigan Wolverines squad, but in doing so, Michigan State almost certainly secured a bid to the program’s 23rd consecutive NCAA Tournament. Barring a miracle run by the Duke Blue Devils in the ACC Tournament, in two year MSU might just own the second longest streak in history, second only to Kansas’ current record of 30 (and counting).
That said, the Spartans did still finish below .500 in conference play. By that measure, this is officially Tom Izzo’s worst team on record.
