Some middling 14 loss b10 team will get in over them like all those other cases. Indiana St 100 percent deserves in.
I have formed the belief that he does exactly this. I can specifically remember the body part in three games I've seen him play this year, even blanking out on the second one last night.If Devin Carter isn't throwing himself to the floor after a missed shot, even money says he's rubbing a body part as if it is about to fall off.
Drake’s profile is a lot easier to defend as an at-large. Moot point now.Some middling 14 loss b10 team will get in over them like all those other cases. Indiana St 100 percent deserves in.
Preseason bias and media fawns over Tom izzoCan someone explain why Michigan St is considered to be relatively safe on the right side of the bubble? 14 losses assuming they don’t win the Big Ten Tournament is far from an at large resume. Hope they give the spot to Indiana St.
In addition: Some convincing wins over Baylor, Illinois and Indiana State as well as a strong strength of schedule. The NET likes Michigan State.Preseason bias and media fawns over Tom izzo

Knee when Georgetown visited w/Cooley in January. Close to game's end.
Did not make a strong impression on me in the 1st UConn game.
Thumb against Villanova for certain.
Shoulder last night against UConn. Then later, something else I can't remember. This was after I'd already identified it as a thing he does.
In none of the instances was there a foul called nor was any announcer comment made until the camera focused on his self-massage, and then they remarked. Never a replay to show if something happened. And Carter went over to a ref after the shoulder 'incident.'
There are many things he does well, but I'm of increasing belief that these non-visible injuries, and the wincing & running in their aftermath are a dubious 'extra' that he adds to each game. My suspicions are raised, and I'll now watch more closely.
They're absolutely on the bubble now. Their predicative metrics are still strong, but this loss is going to put their resume metrics into bubble territory, and once you're on the bubble those resume metrics are more important than their power metrics. WAB updated at 60, SOR was 42 and KPI 37 before this result should push them both into the 40s. 9-13 in first 2 quads.Can someone explain why Michigan St is considered to be relatively safe on the right side of the bubble? 14 losses assuming they don’t win the Big Ten Tournament is far from an at large resume.

Having said that, they really wanted to win at Indiana. Now they are looking at the 8-9 game as a No. 8 seed for the Spartans and a win means having to face No. 1 seed Purdue. Realistically, they are not going to build the resume beating The Ohio State University and then losing to Purdue.
So, probably will get in due to the Izzo comments after all but with a high seeding.
