This past week has been a blur but the BEST part of it was going to the MSU vs UofM basketball game on Tuesday night. Even though I went to State, I never had the chance to go to a basketball game while I was a student. Since graduating, I have been to only one game and it was a horrible one. The Spartans lost horribly to Purdue and it wasn’t a very exciting game. Well, let me tell you, Tuesday’s game overshadowed my past experience without compare. The stadium was a buzz since entering. My boyfriend and I got their at least an hour early and there were still some empty seats in the house (Breslin Center). But that soon changed. The Bres was packed! The game was a white out so all you could see was a sea of white with tinges of green and some yellow color.
MSU vs UofM
The building was electric! At the start of the game, I was a little nervous. Michigan was ranked #1 and you actually have to win some games to get their. I didn’t know what State team would show or which Wolverines came to play. Well, within the first 10 minutes, we all had our answer. The Spartans dominated Michigan. We knew what we wanted and we were going to take it every way we could. 3 after 3 after 3 were being hit. Defense was on fire with aggressive blocks and insane turnovers. Derrick Nix was drinking the Kool-aid. Michigan could not get a break. Every shot they took seemed to hit the rim or backboard and just roll off like there was an invisible force covering the net. In the end, it was a blow out that I don’t think anyone expected. Michigan fans made their big exodus 5 minutes into the second half. We stayed until the end. It was the best game I’ve been and will probably ever go to! Here’s to taking over the BIG 10 and I cannot wait until March!
