Pat Caputo: Michigan should beat MSU
Entering this season, Michigan State, after back-to-back Final Four appearances, was the consensus No.2 college basketball team in the nation.
Michigan? It was to be in the second division of the Big Ten.
Michigan State basketball represented success. Michigan basketball stood for a mess.
The idea the Wolverines would go into the Breslin Center and knock off the Spartans was unthinkable. So was the notion there would be much on the line when the two teams met in the season finale Saturday at Crisler Arena.
It has been remarkable change of fortune for this state's Big Ten college basketball programs, hasn't it?
Michigan beat the Spartans, and rather soundly, in East Lansing in January. And there will be much on the line Saturday at Crisler Arena.
