Michigan State Spartans Basketball Tickets

The Michigan State Spartans overcame an injury to their starting point guard in the NCAA tournament to still advance to the Final Four, which is nothing short of a remarkable accomplishment.

At the same time, would you expect anything else from a Tom Izzo team come tournament time? Izzo is a master of the NCAA tournament, sporting one of the highest winning percentages in March of any active coach.

With point guard Kalin Lucas returning this year, the Spartans should be able to challenge for a national title. Duke stands in the way, but it's hard to give any other team a better chance at knocking them off than Michigan State.

Korie Lucious and Durrell Summers made themselves into household names in last year's tournament, and that experience will carry them a long way in 2010-2011.

The Spartans will likely cruise through the regular season, playing ugly basketball and almost seeming totally disinterested in their games. However, this team always turns it up a few notches come tournament time, and their physical play is perfect for March Madness.
