Michigan State basketball went into halftime of their win on Thursday night with their biggest lead in Big Ten play in the last fifteen years and they didn’t look back. The Spartans slammed the door on Washington and left with one of the most lopsided Big Ten wins I’ve seen from this program in a long time.

Penn State overcame a 12-point deficit in the middle stages of the opening quarter to own a 30-27 advantage at the half. And after the teams were tied entering the final quarter, Penn State outscored Ohio State 11-8 to close out the win. Wednesday offers the Nittany Lions a chance to record a second straight win over a top-25 opponent.

"We're a growth program. We've got a long way to go," Dusty May said of Michigan basketball. A look where Wolverines stand in NCAA tournament picture.
