Big Ten in Final Four


Recommended Posts


I have Michigan, tOSU and Indiana making it. Its going to be tough for MSU to get by Duke, let alone Louisville.

I actually think MSU matches up quite well with Duke. Adrian Payne will be a problem for Ryan Kelly trying to guard him. And Nix is not very tall but is a big enough body to give Plumlee problems just as Echinique did.

Not disagreeing with your opinions, but what about Payne will be a problem for Ryan Kelly? I do agree Nix can bang with Plumlee. I think Creighton was more of a matchup problem. Although Appling is tough.

Just watching MSU the first weekend Payne stood out to me as a guy who is a matchup problem. I haven't watched a ton of them this year but he seems like a very athletic 4 who hounds the glass and is very tough minded. I also think he is athletic enough to guard kelly on the perimeter or when he puts it on the floor. Kelly can shoot the ball no doubt but if you can make him put it on the floor MSU will have a definite advantage.
