Sometimes you just have to bust out for your team.

Yesterday, the Michigan State Spartans won a game they had no business winning. Because of Tom Izzo's success, MSU will never be considered and underdog. But when you lose your starting quarterback before a bowl game, few people expect you to win. The equivalent in basketball is to lose your point guard. Especially an upper classman. The fact that MSU has attained the Final Four of the NCAA once again, (6 times in 12 years) is not a tribute to the players MSU has recruited under the auspices of Coach Izzo, but the man himself. He doesn't recruit franchise players. He recruits the players with heart and well as the mind. Much like Bobby Knight. I had to place this little tribute to the Spartans. They really have been fun to watch.
