For the most part, yesterday’s basketball game between Michigan State and Duke was everything it had promised to be – two heavyweight teams exchanging blows. In the end, our Spartans fell a little short and the Blue Devils continued to be Tom Izzo’s Achilles’ heel. And as I said to friends I spoke to afterwards, […]

Michigan State played one hack of a defensive game against UNC, holding the Heels to a 38% shooting average and clamping down on UNC’s shooting from beyond the arc for a 74-58 win. A combination of poor play on UNC’s part and excellent execution on the Spartans led to the Heels suffering their first loss […]

If you’re a Carolina fan, I sincerely hope the Tar Heels’ 74-58 loss to Michigan State was the most unpleasant part of your Thanksgiving, and I also hope you agree that Henri Veesaar had the best game of anyone wearing a UNC jersey. The strongest evidence of Veesaar’s impact on this matchup may have been […]
