It seems like Tom Izzo assembles an NCAA Tournament Final Four caliber team each and every year. He opened the season with a big splash by taking down the Kentucky version of the "Fab 5." Michigan State used exceptional talent and experience to take down what everyone considers the team to beat this year. This is an experienced coach that will not let his team letdown here, and that spells trouble for an Ivy league opponent in Columbia. The Lions aren't used to the frenzy they will play in tonight on the road, and they are just 8-20 ATS following an ATS win in their last 28. This has big blowout written all over it, so take Michigan State.
