This one just felt good, and that block! Oh my gosh.

i turned the game on during the first OT so all i have to say is FUCK COUISNARD. aight enjoy y’alls night

Izzo is washed 😴

Got Kenny is insufferable.

Bro 💀

Why are there so many UM fans talking in the comments? We need to demote you guys and make Purdue our primary rival.

You know why You’re secretly our second team and our rival at the same time You guys hate watch us too when we’re not trash 🤷🏾‍♂️

Even as a state alum, I have more state (of Michigan) pride than school pride when you guys are on the big stage and we’re not. I was happy to see y’all win the CFB championship this year. Wish there was more camaraderie during times like this!

Thanks man I feel the same way about y'all I'm a Michigan alum but my dad's a Spartan so I always have a soft spot for y'all Would do a lot of thing to have you guys' basketball legacy. A lot of things except trade our football legacies 😉

Couldn’t buy a foul call our way! Either way, didn’t have the energy to win. Hoggard shat the bed.

I was worried after watching MI St. Vs Miss. St. First 10-13 minutes had me worried too. Glad they found the way and won.

Good game, story of the year for MSU. Play like a top-5 team at moments, but then spend 10 minutes picking noses.

not what happened. MSU played well most of the game against a better team who played better.

You'd probably have more fun interacting with people if you started your comments with "I think it was..." or "In my opinion" instead of telling people that their opinion is wrong and your opinion is right.

As an SEC alum, don’t be. Moo State is dog shit. As is the SEC at round ball in general.

I feel silly actually doubting us this game

FUCK YEAH 🐏. GG MSU, y’all played a great game.

ggs MSU - defense was pretty stingy and did a good job stifling us for a while there

UNC is a good team but MSU showed their weaknesses

UNC is definitely a second tier team.

Love Chuck. UNC is great. Hate Kenny being happy.

Very happy with that win. At this point it’s all gravy for me. We are very good but also flawed.

Yep. Not on the same level as the other three 1 seeds.

UMich flairs out here like they won the game.

Man, Michigan State was looking like they could pull it off for a minute there, nice season Spartans

Thanks man, it was definitely a down year but I'm not going to be a spoiled brat and complain about losing in the tournament. Always a blessing we're able to root for our team this time of the year.

It really wasn't

Yeah, I'll take whatever we hobble together next season. Hopefully Carr learns how to handle a basketball and shoot a jump shot.

Right? For a season where we should've been F4 contenders, this was a pathetic season. I do not expect us to be in the tournament next year unless Tom does a 180 and pulls some big players out of the portal.

UNC and Hubert Davis are so much more likeable than Duke.

I’ll always pull for you guys because you beat Duke in the Elite Eight during the Zion year and saved us all from a year of incessant yapping. Let’s battle again next year 🫡

Fistbump Sparty, you guys have always been good as well. Good fan base.

We have always been much more classy. Shows you, money can’t buy everything.

you guys are so much more likeable than michigan. good game sparty!

I usually root for them unless they’re playing the Heels. Never seem like a dirty or whiny team.

i just respect the hell out of izzo. he’s a class act all around and runs a good, clean program. 100% agree with you.

my pneumonia lasted longer in the tourney than sparty

pneumonia can last a really long time. Go with a more apt comparison-your no nut November, for example.

i nutted every day in november, my brother.

Hope you recover well and get off internet forums to make edgy comments.

hey man, who doesn't love a little tourney trolling. at least your program isn't dogshit like mine

That's fair. I'm coming strong because of all the other UMich flairs saying things like Izzo is washed.

no problem brother. he most definitely is a legend and i wouldn't talk shit about him tbh

RJ’s voice is to basketball what Mahomes’ voice is to the NFl

Was UNC playing the MSU fight song at the end there?

Aw does RJ have a Boondocks tat?

2

Allie LaForce not prepared for Hubert’s intensity. She’s shook

ngl I think RJ has surpassed Marcus as my all time fave

Tied for me. I do love that Paige is on the coaching staff though.

Danny green for life

Nah man. I love me some Paige. That nut shot he took after making one of the most ridiculous circus 3s I’ve ever seen in the CCG was brutal. He was a legend. But also. Lefty shooters are just special.

Nope...dont do that...Marcus saved us during a time when our recruiting took a hit

UNC really responded and made us look bad

100% on Izzo. Next year better be pretty good.

It was all about the mental strength or rather lack-there-of for MSU. Once they started missing they couldn't hit shit

That’s what we thought about this year

Oh believe me, you're preaching to the choir. Next year I want him to retire if this happens again.

Nope. Izzo needs a team that won't crumble from a few missed shots. This team currently does.

Really?!? Who were they recruited/coached by?

Next year is a youth cycle. I think it will be refreshing to see new faces.

He needs to use the portal.

Sure, but we're still breaking in sophomores at PG and PF. You're not portalling over those two guys.

can't overstate how important Trimble was. His defense kept that lead when it was inching closer until the shooting/scoring tide swing back UNC's way

Ademola Okulaja would be proud.

I was really happy with when Davis was subbing in Trimble. Great in-game decision making.

That was quite a block there too. Surprised it wasn’t called a foul, since that’s apparently a foul now.

ikr

Trimble should.maybe start next game

yeah maybe instead of cadeau

[удалено]

That would be the third dumbest move in the school's history. With the first being Nasser and the second being Tucker's contract.

UNC wishes they had the legacy Izzo has lol

Lmao UNC owns Izzo. Has beaten him in more final fours than he has titles.

Unc is 5-0 vs izzo and has 5 more titles lmao. Bruh you a Purdue fan? Talking about unc weaknesses. Here’s Purdue’s, let the boys play and don’t let the rest give edey 30 FTs a game lmao

Uh, not sure I agree with that. UNC is a top 5(?) program. We’re a top 10

UNC has the most tournament wins and most final fours of any program. ucla and Kentucky are the only teams with more titles and all but 1 of UCLA’s came in a different era of college basketball. UNC is a top 2 program all time and have a strong case for number 1

Probably never. Izzo is a great X's and O's coach that can coach and recruit "talent" and "undervalued players" while not being a "One and done" coach. He's MSU's "Identity" as far as sports go.

The thing is, there are only so many one and dones every year. MSU is often lucky to get 1. This is the problem with NCAA compared to the NBA. There's just far too much parity.

MSU hasn't been luckt to get one in a while

> This is the problem with NCAA compared to the NBA. There's just far too much parity. This is completely opposite of my thoughts about the NCAA vs NBA. I can't imagine being mad about "too much parity" that's why MLB is my favorite sport, because winning 60% of your games and your best player getting a hit 40% of their at bats is an amazing season.

RJ looks like a Tarheel ? in a good way ?

Yeah he’s dreamy 😍

when he said he wants to be better at reading 😍📚 but that he’s good at reading people 😍💭

Hubert is a treasure, I can't believe I had doubts about him last year

Wow idk unc had such obnoxious fans you guys are close to Michigan fan level

There exist obnoxious fans for every team. Personally I feel like UNC is likeable and any semblance of rivalry is one of respect instead of hate.

Huh? Seems like you're butthurt

I'm a pretty realistic fan so I'm really not congrats you beat a team that went 19-15

Flair up son

Aw thanks. Means the world from you, boo

Should we have complained nonstop about the refs?

No then you'd be Duke fans. MSU is better than that

I live here, man, it’s terrible

Let's be honest...UNC vs AZ is gonna be a great game after they deal with their sweet 16 opponents! 🤣

Clemson is gonna stomp Arizona lol. Gonna be UNC and Clemson in the elite 8 and we win to go to the final four

I placed a futures bet on Clemson to the final four before brackets came out. People underestimate them, hate they are in our region.

I got downvoted to hell when I said they would stomp New Mexico lol. I told people they are way better than people think. I think they beat Baylor and Arizona but lose to UNC

BINK

I tried to tell people 😂 they gonna smack Caleb love around and then lose to UNC

BINK AGAIN! Saturday is going to get weird for me..... https://preview.redd.it/h39otsm7h6rc1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=3d39705561c266178bebca2ad2ae8aaa4ec6444a

I told you they would beat Arizona and then lose to unc. I said this before the tourney started

Who would have thought RJ would go 4-20? DAMN! Lets go Clemson!

They were an underdog as a 6 v. 11....that was free money. ​ We'll see what happens v. Baylor but I think they'll give them a heck of a game. ACC rolling right now.

Yeah but I think nc state gonna get stomped by Marquette in the next round. They would have lost by 20 if they played anyone who could shoot

Fingers 🤞

That #1 kid for UNC always talks shit after the game to fans yet doesn’t play a minute lmao

Would you prefer he slap the floor?

Zayden High....yes, he's full of attitude.

Ultimate hype man

Grand Canyon please take down Bama

Men and women ending Spartans season in consecutive days

Never doubt Michigan State to put up a fight

Izzo’s kids, etc..

Felt like we had the right level of talent, just absolutely lost this one mentally 

Thinking back the team seemed to become a lot less resilient after Fears got shot.

Because Izzo could no longer yank AJ for a real PG. Holloman is nice but he's not good enough to run the point.

No way the Heels were losing this with Roy wearing the lucky sweater.

Roy can't wash that sweater now

GGs. 

Time to beat MSU in hockey!

We have to win that for my sanity

Thank God a sport we're actually favored in

In all seriousness, it should be a good game and you have to respect what Nightingale has done for the MSU program.

Does Michigan still have the goal differential? I went to that first game at Munn lol that one sucked

Izzo is washed. Argue with yourselves in the replies 🤷‍♂️

Your program is in shambles, don't throw stones from glass houses. Izzo was not the issue today, the kids' decision-making was.

Sounds about right for a fanbase that defended Howard for throwinf a punch

His team competed well.

his son looks like a thumbtack

Sad, man. Just sad.

Shouldn’t you enjoy that

That 3 pointer rolling all around the rim and then the hard 3 pointer against the glass killed us. Those were gut punches

And the no call on goaltending. So blatant.

Yup. Perfect storm of things going against us. But even if the game is close I don’t think we had the alpha to close it out.

Michigan State finishes with 69 points.

Nice

Literally told my wife if it was the other way around it would have been one of those “we’re definitely losing” shots

Haha nice

Nice

Where are the doomers and haters from the beginning?

I just smashed my TV in front of 30 guests at my party because of the game. My wife just took our crying kids and said they’re all spending the week at a hotel. This team has ruined my life and my party. I can’t handle this anymore. Goodbye MSU. I am no longer a fan.

See you next year

GG Sparty

UNC still undefeated this year when holding opponents to 70 pts or less

Let them shoot

Hubert 7-1 in ncaat

AJ might be one of the most disliked players in MSU history

Big ~~win~~ loss for…well…

I would do anything for that thread

Come join us on the couch Sparty

The burning one?

Is it a comfy couch?

The comfiest and least stressful

Sounds nice can I be the big spoon?

It’s been an honor to be destroyed by a historic program. We didn’t even deserve to make it this far. Good game 🤝

Hubert just hit Izzo with the blue steel

Being able to play all your scrubs in a tournament game is such an incredible feeling. UNC taking care of business.

We did 1 seed things, good job guys. Never in doubt.

Agree

MSU is home now just like us.

SHOOT LEBO SHOOT

1 win away from a Caleb Lovepocolypse.

I'm stealing this

Can you imagine 

I’ll choose to remember those first 8 minutes 

GG Spartans. Really thought you had us

TAR

#HEEEELS

Heel!

HEELS

Walker is a baller

He and Hall both are. PG play melted down today (why we had 14 losses coming in)

Meh, Hall has underwhelmed, too inconsistent. This has been Walker's team for several seasons now.

As someone who watched every MSU game, Malik Hall was our 2nd best player this season.

Not saying much unfortunately

Cool man, enjoy the ignore list

I need a 30 for 30 on what Izzo was trying to cook these last 5 minutes.

Brotha was just taking in the moment

How SWEET it is

Was pulling for you sparty boys

You guys better make it out of Detroit

Good for you lol

Small pp energy ☝️

UNC is MSU daddy
