Conference: Big Ten
Record: 25-8, 13-7 in conference
RPI: 14
How They Got In: At-Large
Seed/Bracket: 5/South
Mascot: Spartans. Sparty has been named "Buffest Mascot" by Muscle and Fitness and is a three-time national champion mascot.
Big Wins: BYU, Texas, Indiana
Notable Losses: Penn State and Iowa, two of the worst teams in the Big Ten, both beat Michigan State.
Player You Should Know: Senior guard Drew Neitzel is by far Michigan State's best player. He's a good passer, a good outside shooter and the unquestioned team leader. If the Spartans make a run in March, Neitzel will be the biggest reason.
Outlook: Six weeks ago, the Spartans looked like a team with a shot at the Final Four. But they haven't played well down the stretch, going 6-6 in the last 12 after starting the season 19-2. Michigan State is good enough to win a couple of Tournament games, but no more than a couple.
