Michigan State Spartans One Shining Moment

[conyer]

We will see this again soon Spartan fans. Mark my words. GO GREEN!!!

[lovelplants]

go go green! everyone really enjoy! nice shot

[nickmordo]

makes my cry, go green all day

[StickySmurff22]

Oh darn, another final four for MSU, another NIT for Michigan

[1992AlexD]

The one shining moment on that run other than winning it all is Mateen coming back! GO GREEN!

[Crymson1]

Ah, yes... the old days, in which the Spartan basketball players were actually older than I was. Heh :p

[paramoregirl97]

i still luv ya state

[wetboner69]

I just hope we can play Duke in the Championship and destroy them so CBS and ESPN can eat our ass together.

[triplecrown89]

im a UNC fan but im rooting for MSU to win the title this year...tom izzo does more with less talent than anybody, MSU doesnt get those all americans every year but always gets into the elite 8..it sucks that lucas is hurt, but i think lucious can pick up the slack and more importantly i hope you beat those KENTUCKY FAGGOTS

[victory4msu26]

To bad we couldn't play Kentucky, we would have kicked their asses. Thanks for the support you guys deserved it last year hopefully we can get it this year. Go Green.

[triplecrown89]

god u guys would have been my 2nd favorite team if u knocked out dook and kentucky

[NoRulesInNam]

I don't have a favorite college basketball team, but I'm from Michigan so it is always cool to see Michigan State do well (even though I myself am a UM fan when it comes to football).

[maxypooh15]

exactly how i feel. I had some friends last year rooting for UCONN in the final four. That aggravated me!

[balmdeezy]

Actually, Little Brother has been paying players since the 1980-81 season. They are the biggest violators of college athletics in the history of athletics.

Terry Mills received loads of money, as did Glen Rice and every other player who played for Freider.

The University of Michigan has ZERO national championships in basketball. Sucks for them :(

[Justinizcool89]

I hate Michigan too... but they did win a national title.

So, you're an idiot.

[kagiso3741]

WRONG! But you could say that MSU has won ZERO national champinonships in football while the WOVERINES HAVE! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! SUCKER!

[scottybud44]

you are such an idiot its not even funny. Hasn't it been two years since you guys beat us in football or basketball? D BAGG

[paramoregirl97]

@kagiso3741 all the michigan fans are ornery but yet they havent gone the last two years to the ncaa tournament but yet we have....to the final four too

[coolcustodian]

@kagiso3741 but then you would be wrong too. you know who magic johnson is? well hes one of the greatest players ever and he happened to win the ship in '79 with jud. and izzon in 2000, which is the video you were just watching dumbass.

[maxwell8989]

@balmdeezy for the exception of course of scUMs scandal? didnt you guys have to vacate your 92 and 93 final four appearances...when you guys lost anyways to both duke and unc, and wasnt coach fisher fired for it? all because michigans players were making money off your little booster buddy?

[BRBaller1213]

I remember this game and the tournament like it was last month. Hard to believe this was already almost 10 years ago,I was 7 years old and went nuts. GO GREEN

[Harmon98]

Mateen Cleaves was in the rolled over SUV that caused Michigan to recieve bad sanctions obviously Mich was outbid, you do the math.

[Chrisrokk239]

@Harmon98 Sure. Mateen could've gone to U of M and got sanctioned for CHEATING. Instead he GRADUATED from MSU and won 3 LEGIT Big 10 titles and a NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.

Look at the current state of U of M: the praised cheater Jalen Rose at mid court vs. MSU on Jan 26. ScUM has no shame.

Meanwhile, MSU is a top 10 program that graduates 80% of its players. 12 consecutive NCAAs, 5 final fours. UM, 1 NCAA bid in the past 10 years. Do the math.

[Harmon98]

Jalen Rose did not recieve money, Chris Webber, Louis Bullock, Robert Traylor and Maurice Taylor took money. Jalen Rose actually pays for a whole section of seats in Crisler Arena for poor children to sit in free of charge. Don't bring up the academics portion of Michigan, I have a hard time believing State competes with Michigan academically.

[Chrisrokk239]

Headline: "Jalen Rose says he took money from Ed Martin" Ludington Daily News May 31, 2002...nd Rose left Michigan as a junior-no degree. I'll give him credit for buying seats for poor kids. Good for him. He's no Steve Smith. MSU is #1 nationally in teacher education and #2 in physics. Go watch footage of UM's amazing 2006 NIT title. LOL.

[victory4msu26]

Say what you want about UM academics vs MSU academics it doesnt matter. UM is better, but MSU still is a very good school. It doesnt matter to the athletes though about 90 percent fo UM's athletes major in either general education or kinesiology. Not very impressive. At least most of our athletes have real majors.

[nickstick56]

GO STATE

[spartanfan4]

only reason unc won is bcause there players will suck in the nba idk lets say tyler hansbrough

[cmfisch978]

so your team lost to a bunch of players that will suck in the nba? what does that say about your team?

[victory4msu26]

Yeah that makes sense. "UNC only won becuase their players suck" Or maybe just maybe they were better than MSU. I love MSU I have loved them my entire life but UNC was by far the best team in the country last year and earned that title.

[salliusgrode]

GO  STATE

[dieorelse100]

one shining moment is a great song. It goes well with any basketball team or any game.

[victory4msu26]

2:37 for me at least is the greatest moment in sports history.

[gomuskegonjacks]

I'll root for state anytime except when there playing michigan. I will always love U of M and LIKE MSU.

[clark1wd]

Wow, that has to be the cheesiest song I've ever heard.

[victory4msu26]

This song defines college basketball.

[myronkelly67]

cleaves was a nice college hooper but his game was not made for the nba...seemed like a good quality guy.

[fol2005]

Dear Big 10-

Please stay out of national championships for every sport. We are tired of seeing you get blown out in football and basketball.

Sincerely,

The rest of the nation.

[victory4msu26]

You are probably some weak ass big east fan who's team can never make it to the championship. Just shut up.

[fol2005]

Kansas Jayhawk fan.

[campusmang]

sorry

[fol2005]

Sorry for what

[campusmang]

n/m dude

[victory4msu26]

Well in that case how did you like MSU beating your Jayhawks not once but twice this year. What a choke job by Kansas in the sweet 16.

[fol2005]

A supposed "down year for Kansas" coming off a national title with the 10th youngest team in the NATION predicted to finish 5th in the Big XII???

I'll take a sweet 16 and a preseason #1 ranking for 2010.

Win a title in 2008... or get embarrassed on the biggest stage in basketball in 2009.

Who has the better program?

[victory4msu26]

Historically Kansas is better. But recently MSU is better. In the past decade MSU has been to 5 final fours and won a national championship. Only UNC can say that they have done more in that time span.

[campusmang]

lol

msu= freshman

good luck next year unc, your shit is retired

[jackfrickesays]

dont worry spartan fans we will be back next year

[bamfan151]

Well....The Championship just ended 30 seconds ago..... And im speechless...

I still love MSU till death. And i'll bleed green and white forever..

Go State!!

[JSPSkiCast]

good video, gay music

[erdoll21594]

Get it MSU! I've been a fan since I can remember because my dad went there. I'm hoping they can prove everyone wrong and come home with a title, but if not that's fine. They beat the odds by beating two number 1 seeds in a row. Everyone who's a true fan knows what an accomplishment that is for MSU and Tom Izzo. Thirty years ago they did it with Magic...let's see if they have a little magic on their side tonight. :)

[kaygostate]

wes in the championship monday whooo!!!! go state

[msuspartans03]

hell yeah baby cant wait to hear this again, i just saw the championship season recap on big ten network and teared up

i live for michigan state go green!!!! bring it home baby!!!!!

[nmotz4658]

Can't wait to hear this song one more time...YES WE CAN!!!! GO GREEN, GO WHITE, GO YOU WHO DOUBT!

[kaygostate]

go state lets rock uconn!!

[Spartanfanatic]

Come monday MSU is goin to heart this song again!!

[myronkelly67]

they will hear it like the rest of the country while sitting at home or in the local sports bar cause uconn or nova will celbrate and cut down nets.

[Spartanfanatic]

right, u really think UCONN is going to win? you must be naive as hell

[jcaudill6921]

I don't think any outcome of this final four will surprise me. For the sake of me winning my pool, I need UConn to beat MSU and then UNC to beat Nova.

I actually had all four of the final four teams.

[Spartanfanatic]

well good luck, i think MSU is going to win it all, our state really needs this victory, and Izzo is going to get it! remember we are in Detroit

GO STATE

[jcaudill6921]

I love Izzo. I have nothing but respect for him and as a fan, I would like to see MSU or Nova take it but for the sake of money, I need UConn and UNC to win.

[Spartanfanatic]

for the sake of money, wow that is pretty selfish right there, why bet on a game

[jcaudill6921]

Why do I bet on games? Everyone fills out a bracket to try and win their pool. I got all four teams correct and I want to win the money besides....my team is already out.

I hate UNC and I hate Calhoun from UConn but I have to hope they do well.

[Spartanfanatic]

well guess what MSU IS GOING TO THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!!! and all i can say to UNC is REVENGE IS SWEET!!!!!

[jcaudill6921]

Revenge? On whom?

Now I'm basically, playing for $200. It will come down to tiebreaker points though. I guess now I can root for MSU.

Eff UNC.

[Spartanfanatic]

on UNC from the first time these guys met this season

[pujolsbaseball13]

yeah MSU is going to the championship once again you piece of crap! eat it!

[scottmarthaler01]

hansbrough upside yo head nigga!!!

[higherground100]

hansborough sucks dick, i'll laugh when hes a second round draft pick

[victory4msu26]

Show some damn class. They beat us and Hansbrough is one of the best college basketball players ever. People like you are the reason that MSU fans get a bad reputation.

[myronkelly67]

hansbrough was a great college player but he will be a role player in the nba...will still contribute in a big way as he is a hustler.

[victory4msu26]

I'm not denying that Hansbrough wont be a great NBA player I dont think he will ever be a starter but he is definately one of the best college players ever.

[ohioworststate]

Dear NCAA teams and fans,

Please keep disrespecting Michigan State. All we do is go to the final four every other year.

Thx,

Tom Izzo

[myronkelly67]

izzo is a great coach to get his teams to the final 4 cause they are weak teams.

[ohioworststate]

They are a DIFFERENT kind of program because they are TEAMS... IZZO will not recruit the odens, beasleys, roses, or Durants... He learned his lesson with Jason Richardson, Zach Randolph, and marcus taylor....

He asks guys to buy into his system, stay four years, and promises he'll take you to the final four....

EVERY SINGLE PLAYER THAT HAS STAYED FOUR YEARS FOUR IZZO HAS GONE TO AT LEAST ONE FINAL FOUR.....

But i get it.. you're a TOO BIG East apologist.....

[Spartanfanatic]

STATE IS GOING ALL THE WAY

[Jvictory15]

ummm...how did that work out for you?

[Nickgvictorson]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooo USC

[Michaelphelps0808]

Carolina all the way baby Go Heels...

[Ken1181]

State could be playing in their home state for the Final Four this year mark my word!!! Go Green Go White!!

[jgfunk]

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA...great joke for Monday.

I'm marking this because the Big Ten is weak.

[beefstu2822]

just because the big ten is weak doesnt mean msu is, you fuck in prick

[shukribr]

HA HA HA Ha State IS IN THE FINAL FOUR BITCHES!

[paryshnikov]

say what? numbskull.

[SerbianStud22]

hey douchebag check the bracket

[Spartanfanatic]

big ten is week, i think we just destroyed louisville

[jgfunk]

One good team does not make a good conference. Stop skipping your MSU algebra 101 class and maybe you can learn percentages.

[Spartanfanatic]

I take calc fyi, and well we still got to the title game when nobody thought we could, so that is something right there

[ohioworststate]

Damn it must suck to eat shit... LOL

[grindlbebe]

We could see it again. This year's team is really improving by leaps and bounds. See you at Ford Field in March. Bring it, NC.

[AMFCode278]

im a HUGE MICHIGAN STATE FAN! but it was embarassing how they peformed at UNC. that was not real MSU b-ball. However if they played like they normally do then it would be a good game.

[kirkschattilly]

That Purdue game told us that da spartans are only a sweet 16 team

[lforlucas]

Hell no. You're a dumbass.

[AMFCode278]

yea the f***** up that game idk what happend. It just depends how they decide to play in the tournamnet. Davidson for example was not a top team last year they were good but not even a top 8. But they played their best in the tournament thats all that matterd. Anything can happen in the tournament.

[saddy78]

AMFCode278....if you are a HUGE MSU fan than you should know that we never played at UNC. It was at Ford Field genius.

[omgitsaustind123]

yep i was there it was at ford field not unc it was brutal, fun pregame, and brutal during the game

[AMFCode278]

haha srry u know what i ment. I know it was ford field i guess i ment to say against UNC but still GO MSU Kevin Lucas all the way!

[omgitsaustind123]

its kalin Lucas you dumbass, and you call your self a spartan

[AMFCode278]

yea w/e

[zubitup]

i'm going to give one shining moment to the wolfpack's chin with my balls

[gaugiers]

NC State is the "real" State? Are you serious? You're not even the best basketball team in a fifty mile radius.

What a joke.

[grandcp]

What an idiot!

[goncsupack2]

Being surrounded by 2 dynasties in Duke and Carolina isn't easy. You should know, you lost to Carolina in the ncaa's last year. We beat Carolina lst year. We have been to the big dance more times than you have. We both have 2 championships. We'll see who's better on NOvember 28

[spartankid0]

hello again moron. that was a good game huh? REALLY REALLY close at the end. oh, wait, i'm thinking of the NCS/Vanderbilt game with the crappy call at the end...hmmmm....oh yeah, this game was 81-58...who won? the SPARTANS. so i believe you can call us the "Real" State now.

[goncsupack2]

We are still the real state. It's kinda hard to win win you shoot 20% and the other teams shoots 65%. And we beat Nova, not Vanderbilt. You guys were better than us, I'll admit that. But we are still the real and only real state.

[gaugiers]

I was going to say something, but never mind. There's no use arguing with someone who's delusional.

Enjoy the NIT!

[CoasterBoy777]

uh we beat u

[omgitsaustind123]

novemeber 28 we beat the wolfpack

[dunemanattack]

The "real" State?

National Champions:

MSU- 2

NC State- 2

Final Fours:

MSU- 6

NC State- 3

Last Elite 8 appearance:

MSU- 2005

NC State- 1986

[goncsupack2]

Wow you guys fucking suck. I had high expectations with us coming into East Lansing this year for the ACC-Big 10. NOW I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT! hahahaaa, wow, what an embarrassment.

[grandcp]

Andy Katz has MSU the best basketball team over the last 10 years. I guess we suck...not! Do your homework before you bring garbage.

[goncsupack2]

Do my homework? Isn't losing to Grand Valley State in an Exhibition (practice games) enough proof? I don't care what Andy Katz says, it's an opinion. Yall suck, its that simple.

[grandcp]

If we suck, what does that make you now? You belong in Div 2 I guess. Grand Valley could beat you by 30 pts. Can you say blowout?! Like I said, do your homework before you start trash talking here. You never stood a chance in that game.

[DoctorWorm1]

You said it yourself. Practice games. You think that was our best game? If we suck, what does that make you?

[jackfrickesays]

goncsupack you are a fucking idiot. if we suck so much can you explain going to 4 of the last 9 final fours. what the fuck have you guys done? fucking nothing!! you are pathetich. GO GREEN!! GO STATE!!

[kellers5]

i love how everyone talks about GV.. its early dont worry about it. enjoy your win over us now cuz when we make a mad run in the tournament that everyone watches you can fuck off in D2. besides our 5 returing starters.. watch out for lucas, allen, and summers bitch

[glory789]

Grand Valley State

[JMD0429]

Izzo is putting all the pieces together for another run at the big one. It's going to be a fun ride Spartan fans.

[goncsupack2]

Allright

[igloo333]

HA HA HA HA HA an NC State fan talking trash.  Now i've seen everything.

[spartankid0]

oh, and as for the "real" state, MSU was established in 1855, and NCS in 1887

[goncsupack2]

That dosen't have anything to do with it. We'll see when we come up to East Lansing on November 28th. Maybe you guys will be able to compete with the all mighty ACC (for once).

[ixcuincle]

Izzo > Beilein

[goncsupack2]

you guys aren't the "real" state, NC State is, and you shouldnt have state on the front of your jersey....just wait untill we come into your house for the ACC/Big Ten Challenge this year, ACC 8-0.....bout to be 9-0

[spartankid0]

wow you're a moron, goncsupack2, because, i believe, we've won a more recent championship, and have reached the final four within the last 3 years....i believe the last time your bball team won a championship was in 1983....

[goncsupack2]

Too bad you had to look on Wikipedia to be able to comeback...You have 2 Championships, like us..So you can't go talking about how recent it was or anything like that, because we're even.

You have one good athletics team...basketball, and maybe hockey too, but nobody cares about gay hockey. "State" won 8 ACC Championships last year, out of 21 possible sports. Good luck on November 28, your going to need it.

[spartankid0]

alright, we'll see. I was just wondering why you were watching this in the first place if you were just going to trash talk the Spartans....it's nothing personal - i've always rooted for your 'state' as long as they didn't play the Spartans....

[glory789]

Im not a Michigan State fan but in their defense, NOBODY GIVES A SHIT ABOUT NC STATE!

[goncsupack2]

Who are you a fan of? Yeah, I'll admit, we are underated in football and basketball. Just wait my friend, the Tobacco Road Trio at it's best this year! (UNC, Duke, NCSU)

[CoasterBoy777]

nc state is terrible

they couldnt compete with any big ten teams

even northwestern

[donutmunchers65]

this is going to happen again very soon

2008 starting linup

Kalin Lucas

Durell Summers

Delvon Roe

Raymar Morgan

Tom Herzog

possibly Chris Allen in there for someone

hey who knows they could redshirt Neitzel next season and then have him for this one :]

[donutmunchers65]

oh and i also forgot to mention Marquise, Suton, Idong, Walton, and MoJo (if he doesnt transfer) will all be seniors.

Just wait spartan fans. So maybe my starting linup is alittle off but it wouldnt do to bad

[msu1992]

yeah last big ten team to win it all

[apsports89]

wow, goosebumps, GO GREEN GO WHITE!!

[s4hman]

i always get goosebumps watching this...

[silerbr2]

I remember this like it was yesterday...

[Cahillman25]

state is so fucking amazing.. Go Green!

[rosevea1]

I was there.

Go State.
