Michigan State off a big emotional victory over Michigan last time out a team that beat them 3 straight times and now they go on the road Saturday to play the Big Ten's best in Ohio State. They have the pesky Nittany Lions to deal with in between. I doubt their energy will be 100% for this game and I look to benefit from that. Penn State does have scoring options in 2nd leading scorer Tim Frazier. IF they can double up in the paint on defense and force this into an ugly game they can actually pull off a win. This is a different style Penn State basketball team under head coach Patrick Chambers and it's not as easy for Izzo to put a game plan together for playing a team that's brand new to him . He even stated something similar to that yesterday. Expect Michigan State to win, but they won't pull away until late.
