The Michigan State men's basketball team opened up the season last night with a not very impressive 64-52 win over Bucknell in East Lansing. From the AP:
Michigan State coach Tom Izzo was disgusted with his team's effort. The Spartans outrebounded Bucknell 42-39 but often allowed the Bison to take uncontested shots.
"Teams that play hard usually win, and this is the softest team we've had in the nine years I've been here," Izzo said. "We are soft."
Nex up is a road game against Kansas.
UPDATE: More on the Bucknell win from The Lansing State Journal. Also from that paper, on a semi-related note, herearethree pieces on the MSU football team.

I may comment more on James Lileks' attack on Salam Pax later but right now suffice to say the message seems to be, "Hey we gave you freedom so shut the fuck up."
This is what sells in the streets of the terrortories.
Now tell us again why we shouldn't weed them off the face of the planet, every single camelfucking one of them?
Oh I don't know, maybe BECUASE THEY ARE HUMANS or something.
By the way, I followed the link and what is displayed is disgusting but the assumption about these items being common seems unfounded. Not that they care... One of them mocks the deaths of AMERICANS and they all should die! They all need to pay for the sins of the few! Now where have I heard that logic? 12:40 p.m. 11/22/03
UPDATE #2: The Michigan State football team finished up the regular season today in East Lansing with a 41-10 win against Penn State. Now awaiting a bowl bid, the team is now 8-4 overall and finished 5-3 in Big Ten play. That makes this not only the team's best season since 1999 but also the first time since that year that they did not have a losing record in conference play. 11:56 p.m. 11/22/03 posted by micah holmquist at 11/22/2003 09:43:00 AM
