Michigan State Basketball had one of the most stressful, exciting couple of weeks in program history, knocking off three top-5 teams on their way to officially make the NCAA Tournament. It was announced on Sunday that the Spartans will be a First Four team, playing UCLA in a play-in game for the right to be a No. 11 seed in the Tournament.
If MSU is able to beat UCLA on Thursday, they will face BYU on Saturday.
Michigan State now extends its NCAA Tournament streak to 23 straight seasons. With Duke out of March Madness for COVID-19 reasons, MSU now owns the second-best active NCAA Tournament streak.
Michigan State is in the East region, which has Michigan as a No. 1 seed. If MSU is able to advance, they could face No. 2 Alabama or potentially a rematch with No. 7 seed Maryland.
