The final four is set.
After four rounds of voting we have whittled our list of 64 Spartans down to just four names. These four names represent the top of the line in both on-field achievements and off-field charisma. Whichever Spartan is crowned the top of the top, he will have earned it.
Our first semifinal matchup features the absolute buzzsaw of the tournament in Magic Johnson taking on fellow one seed and the last football Spartan left on the board Kirk Cousins.
Magic has absolutely cruised through this tournament. His lowest vote total was in the sweet 16 when he defeated Denzel Valentine 92% to 8%. It’s been an absolute bludgeoning every step of the way. This will be, by far, his toughest matchup yet.
Kirk Cousins easily defeated Connor Cook in the elite eight. Despite Cook having the upper hand in terms of achievement, Cousins etched himself in the hearts of a greater portion fo the Michigan State faithful. Does one of the greatest Spartan football players ever have what it takes to defeat perhaps the most famous Spartan ever? (Yes, that includes Leonidas.) That’s for you to decide.
