How will Dickie V. put on a positive spin for MSU after this one?

Iowa is simply kicking the sheeet out of MSU. Playing at home is very important in B10 basketball, as MN found out tonight.

Michigan State's streak of NCAA tourney appearances is coming to an end this season.

Blew their doors off, wow! And yes, MSU is looking NIT bound almost for sure.

And yeah, road games even against teams who've looked like road kill are tough bidness in the B10. You can never count on victory anymore.

Because of their tough non-conference schedule and poor record playing against it.....They are currently 13-9 overall.

if they continue their freefall, it will be very interesting to see what happens.
Their schedule:
@ Wisconsin Loss
Penn State ?
@ Ohio State Loss
Illinois ?
@ Minnesota ?
Purdue Loss
Iowa Win
@ Michigan ?

I have got them going 1-3 with 4 toss up games. If they go 1-3 in the four toss up games...they finish 15-15 and need a Big Ten tourney win to even be eligible for the NIT. If they go 4-0 in the 4 toss up games, they probably still make the dance.
