This years Michigan State is a very high powered offensive team which is a little different for Coach Izzo. But Izzo’s team still hangs there hat on defense and rebounding dominance. Currently the #6 ranked Spartans are riding a undefeated road streak with a record of 7-0 and 20-4 overall.
PG leader Raymon Morgan is questionable for game after missing the last three games due to illness. Morgan leads them in scoring but they are 3-0 without him and are still scoring very well. The key to the Spartans game plan is going to get this game up tempo because they are much more athletic and deeper bench.
The Purdue Boilermakers 19-6 overall and 13-2 at home. They currently are two games back from the Spartans but with still two games left against MSU Purdue still holds out hope for a BIG TEN Championship. Purdue has been winning with its defense, as it’s held each of its last two opponents to less than 50 points.
Purdue’s Robbie Hummel returned to the lineup last game after missing the previous three games with a hairline fracture in his lower back. If the Boilermakers are going to beat the Spartans they need all there athletes including Hummell. The one key to this game for Purdue is shutting down the fastbreak points of Michigan State. Purdue needs this game to be in the 50’s to 60’s to win this match up.
The Big Ten crown could be given out if Michigan State takes care of business but with a loss Purdue could put themselves right back into the race. This is going to be a physical game and should be a well coached and played game. Don’t miss this one will be a classic big ten match up!
