Baylor vs. Michigan State CBB Prediction:
Baylor is looking for a 10-0 Saturday, while Michigan State surprisingly is searching to get back to .500 on the season.
Give me the Spartans. It is has been an awful start to the season for Sparty, but I’m not throwing in the towel quite yet on Tom Izzo and a veteran club. The Spartans primary issue has been scoring, they have been awful from behind the arc and haven’t capitalized when they get to the charity stride. With that being said the talent is there for Sparty to turn this season around and I think it starts Saturday versus a Baylor that is likely to see some regression here soon after red hot to start the season.
