Got to admit I've been eagerly awaiting starting this thread. :)

Because of a very unusual schedule we play "MSU" twice this week.

No offense to Sparty, but I propose to refer to Michigan State as MSU(1). Missouri State will be MSU(2). Actually I hope the Missouri State fans don't feel slighted. It has to do with the temporal sequence, we play Michigan State before playing Missouri State. If we played Missouri State first they'd been MSU(1).

Anyway, MSU(1) should be an 11 or 12 point favorite. This doesn't appear to be a great Spartan team anymore then the team which plays 6 miles west of our Convo is a great team (they didn't even look 'good' yesterday. )

MSU(1) plays Oakland tonight. Maybe we'll see if they come ready to play? Maybe they save their "A" game for us since we are #1 in Washtenaw County this morning. Maybe something about a mythical state of Michigan championship? (Sweep Oakland, UofM, MSU(1), WMU and CMU and of course, not to mention Rochester and Marygrove, and Concordia, too. Concordia would give us undisputed championship of Washtenaw County collegiate basketball for 2014/15. Governor Snyder can you get a trophy made. Lol.).
