I originally thought the Big10 would be shut out of the final four but with all the negativity against the B10 by all the so called “experts” I find myself rooting for Izzo and his team. I am tired about hearing about no national championship for over 20 years despite the league sending 8+ teams per year. If anyone can pull this off, Izzo can. Plus it would be nice to say Rutgers beat the National champions.

I'm rooting for Sparty too, but I don't think they have the talent to win the NC, even accounting for the fact that teams can go on magical March runs.

They are slightly favorites over Kansas State. If they advance, I see no reason for them to fear Tennessee or FAU. Once you are in the Final Four, you just need a hot weekend. It's possible, but I wouldn't put a lot of cash on it

MSU has an experienced and talented backcourt with Walker and Hoggard... and as we all know, guard-play is the most important thing in the tournament. I can definitely see Izzo's squad making a run at the title.

So much parity this year, if they get hot/stay hot from 3, they could do it.
Shabazz Uconn 7 seed team vibes?

I like that KSU point guard a lot better than the MSU guards
Fun guy to watch - some big assists numbers.
It takes a little luck - maybe he has a high TO game and MSU shoots great?
Uconn/Shabazz championship team won first-round game vs Martelli's St Josephs in OT
