No MSU upset for Northwestern this year | detnews.com | The Detroit News: "Atop the conference standings with road games at Wisconsin (Tuesday) and Illinois (Feb. 6), it's hard for Michigan State to not feel good about its standing.
'We know teams are going to come at us,' guard Kalin Lucas said. 'Just stay focused, stay hungry.'"
Comment -- The highlight of Saturday night's game we attended was Chris Allen's soaring tomahawk dunk. The crowd went wild -- not only after it happened, but during the replays, too.
We got a bit antsy when Northwest closed to within single digits late in the game, but MSU hit their foul shots and we held them off.
State is now 9-0 for the first half of the Big Ten season. Admittedly, the schedule gets much tougher now with road games to Wisconsin and Purdue coming up. Still, we got this far, notably without any upsets. In other words, we won all the games we were supposed to win.
If I'm the Wisconsin or Purdue coach, I'm thinking right now that I have a very daunting task trying to make up 3 games in the standings with only 9 games left. Go State!
