Michigan State is safely in the NCAA Tournament, but it has seen its seed stock drop in recent weeks, according to ESPN’s Joe Lunardi.

Lunardi released on Tuesday an updated bracketology, which has the Spartans as a No. 5 seed. He projects Michigan State to open against No. 12 Davidson in the Midwest Region.

The Spartans have been slowly dropping in the recent weeks; Lunardi had Michigan State as a No. 3 seed for multiple weeks. At least, Michigan State looks to be a near lock to be dancing this season, which wasn’t the case this time last year.

Losing at home Northwestern definitely will hurt your NCAA Tournament stock so it’s no surprise to see the Spartans drop in the latest batch of Bracketology from ESPN’s Joe Lunardi.

Lunardi released an updated bracket projection on Tuesday, which has the Spartans as a No. 4 seed in the East region. Michigan State is slated to play No. 13 seed Ohio in the projected first-round matchup.

Michigan State was as high as a No. 2 seed just a few weeks ago, but lackluster play over the past few games has resulted in the Spartans sliding.

Michigan State continues to win on the hardwood and that has helped bolster their NCAA Tournament stock in ESPN’s NCAA Tournament projections.

Joe Lunardi of ESPN has moved the Spartans up to a No. 2 seed in his most recent Bracketology update this week. Michigan State was most recently listed as a No. 3 seed.

Michigan State would play No. 15 seed Wagner in the first round of this projected tournament bracket. Check out the complete Bracketology post from Lunardi by clicking on the link below:

If the season ended today, Michigan State basketball would be a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament — according to Joe Lunardi of ESPN.

Lunardi — who is known for his season-long NCAA Tournament bracket projections — released an updated “seed list” on Monday, with the Spartans coming in as a No. 3 seed. He officially listed Michigan State as the No. 12 overall team — which comes out as the lowest No. 3 seed.

Michigan State is the second-highest ranked BigTen team in Lunardi’s seed list, behind only Purdue, who is the final No. 1 seed.
