LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Entering Tuesday’s ACC/Big Ten Challenge, No. 9 Michigan State (5-2) was turning the ball over 14.2 times per outing. The turnover woes, like last season, is already a recurring issue in this young season, as MSU coughed it up 17 more times in its 82-78 overtime loss to Louisville (4-2).
“I’m disappointed in how we played,” head coach Tom Izzo said, visibly irked in his postgame presser. “I thought we did another horrendous job at the beginning of the game. We had 11 or 12 turnovers in the first half.”
