I was afraid that sweep of IU would give us an false sense of how good we are.
Well it doesn't help when their ace is wheeling and dealing either.
Good pitching will always beat good hitting. It's just one of those days where MSU's pitcher was very good today.

There isn't a lot of difference between the 8 teams in the field of this week's tourney, and MSU was ranked 3 weeks ago, so losing today shouldn't come as a major shock.

 
Michigan St advances to winners bracket game vs Maryland tomorrow at 5pm
