Huge home court advantage for MSU. Just as there was for Michigan...and for Kansas and KSU playing in Kansas City. So how come we are a 4 Seed playing 45 minutes from Cal's campus?
Are you serious? I mean, I agree we should beat Cal on any court. With that said, they're a lot better than Rutgers. Crabbe is PAC-12 player of the year, and one of the better players we will face this year. Top 5 or 7 easily. Comparing them to Rutgers is a bit much. I would look at them like Cincy or Nova or Temple (in terms of skill not style of play). They are a team that can beat us if we don't bring our 'A' game. If we brought our 'D' game to Rutty we'd still win. Big difference there.We have no excuse not to win this game in convincing fashion tonight. If we lose tonight, then we just aren't that good. We deserve to go home. This should be like beating Rutgers at the RAC. Or maybe beating Rutgers at Brendan Byrne Arena.
