MSU with probable path to Sweet 16 in latest NCAA Tournament bracket prediction from Andy Katz

MSU with probable path to Sweet 16 in latest NCAA Tournament bracket prediction from Andy Katz

Seed / Region: No. 5 seed in East Region

First Round Opponent: No. 12 seed VCU

Thoughts on Draw: Getting a No. 5 seed would be great for the Spartans and their chances of reaching the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament. The 5-12 seed game historically has plenty of upsets but in this scenario I actually like the Spartans odds of advancing to the second round. From there, it would be a matchup against the winner of No. 4 seed Virginia and No. 13 seed Liberty. Again, both of those teams appear to be beatable opponents for the Spartans. Nothing is guaranteed in March, but this would be a great draw for the Spartans should it come into fruition in a few months.
