Something Dusty said after the first MSU game was about freedom of movement that you don�t get in the B1G.

The teams in their region don�t play the type of defense that will not restrict their freedom of movement like the better B1G teams do. Should be a reasonable chance at the final four.

Freedom of movement will likely lead back to 20-30pt wins and 100pts. * - By Bmh75 March 15, 2026 at 05:53:14 PM
I said this before the draw, but we are a different kind of team. Most teams don't play a guy like Mara or Yaxel all season Doesn't matter how well you scout, as it will be different on the court* - By BBA March 15, 2026 at 05:52:26 PM
Iowa St likes to trap. We should be able to pass over it. UVA plays some defense but nothing that should give us legit trouble* - By hambone March 15, 2026 at 05:51:23 PM
- Yeah, no where near like they used to.* - By apblue March 15, 2026 at 05:57:32 PM
