East Lansing — After Michigan State lost at Indiana on Saturday, a frustrated Tom Izzo uttered one line that almost got lost among the list of things that led to the Spartans dropping a second straight game to the Hoosiers.
“I know one thing, we’re not dead yet,” Izzo said.
With two games left in the regular season and one game behind Purdue in the Big Ten standings, it’s true, the Spartans are not dead yet. There’s a path toward sharing a regular-season championship if Michigan State can win on Tuesday at home against Nebraska and Saturday in the season finale against Michigan.
