As soon as I wrote the Alabama preview, naturally the news of Malik Hall’s stress reaction in his left foot broke (a stress reaction occurs when the bone is severely bruised or damaged, but no actual fracture has occurred). Hall’s absence doomed the Spartans in a game the team likely wins comfortably if playing at full-strength. But, as my grandmother used to say “if wishes were horses, then beggars would ride...” Given Hall’s and Akins’ prolonged absences, Michigan State will have no option but to play the games on the schedule severely undermanned.
