End of the day and it's almost SPARTAN Time!

I would be a totally irresponsible and reprehensible Spartan if I didn't comment on the BIG game tonight: MSU hosts the bucking-bad Badgers at Breslin Center in East Lansing for the Big Ten championship!!!!

Here's a quote from Alan Anderson in the Lansing State Journal, today:

"MSU used to be known as that team," MSU junior guard Alan Anderson said. "That team that everyone wanted to beat and had to beat. Now (Wisconsin's) program has gotten bigger; they've won two straight (titles) and they're that team. So now we've got to beat them to get back on top. That's why this is so perfect.

"But it's easier said than done. We haven't been able to beat them yet."


And here's Izzo's take on the game:

"It is perfect," Izzo said of tonight's clash. "We're the teams that have won (six straight) Big Ten titles. They broke our home winning streak (in 2002). We broke their hearts at the Final Four (in 2000). It doesn't get much better than this."

We'll be at Rosie O'Gradys, seven o'clock, beer in hand, to watch the BIG game!

Go State, beat the bad Badgers!!!
