Everyone on ESPN picked Michigan State to win it all.

No respect for Virginia or Wichita State from the panel.

I mean, seriously, for crissakes. How in the hell did he keep writing down Oklahoma State and think that it was a better and better idea. That's comically bad.

I was pissed that he picked Duke Final Four. He's never right about anything.

Izzo and a finally healthy team, I think they have a good shot at it.

Spent multiple weeks as the #1 team in the nation, then were riddled with injuries. One of the best coaches in college basketball and a team thats getting healthy and on a roll at the right time, paired with a great draw....its not crazy to pick them

I don't think msu is a bad pick. But 2 thins that make me weary of picking them: 1) appling. He's hit or miss and he likes to get too many shots up. 2) this isn't a tough msu team of years past. They're a little soft. That being said, I think they have a nice draw.

Meh I dont think hes that much of a gun. He was 2nd in the big ten in assists at 5 assists per game, to only 9 shots.

I do agree that outside of Dawson though they arent hard nosed like most MSU teams have been though

I don't think he's a ball hog. More so takes bad shots and in times he shouldn't.
