East Lansing — Michigan State coach Tom Izzo heard the chants on Tuesday night and admitted he was starting to get upset. He didn’t understand why the fans were hammering ESPN analyst Dan Dakich, who was courtside calling the game.

The Michigan State student section known as the “Izzone” was spending much of the Spartans’ 74-66 victory over Ohio State chanting, “We hate Dakich,” usually when Buckeyes were shooting free throws. That came after constant booing during an early timeout when Dakich takes the court to break down something happening in the game.
