Spartans listed as No. 1 seed in updated ‘Bracketology’ from ESPN

Michigan State is a favorite to end up on the one line in next year’s NCAA Tournament, according to ESPN’s Joe Lunardi

Michigan State is a favorite to end up on the one line in next year’s NCAA Tournament, according to ESPN’s Joe Lunardi.

There’s a lot of hype surrounding the Spartans as we inch closer and closer to the 2023-24 season. That hype is certainly backed by Lunardi — who has the Spartans as a No. 1 seed in the East Region in his updated batch of Bracketology released on Tuesday. He also is high on the Purdue Boilermakers from the Big Ten, and has them as the No. 1 seed in the Midwest Region. This is notable since the Midwest Region Sweet 16 and Elite Eight games will be played in Detroit.

In total, Lunardi has eight teams from the Big Ten dancing in next year’s NCAA Tournament. That is tied with the SEC for the most for any conference.

MSU basketball listed as No. 1 seed, playing in Detroit-based regional in latest ESPN ‘Bracketology’ update

The latest bracketology update from Joe Lunardi of ESPN would be a dream for Michigan State basketball

The latest bracketology update from Joe Lunardi of ESPN would be a dream for Michigan State basketball.

Lunardi still has the Spartans as a No. 1 seed in his updated bracket projection for the 2023-24 NCAA Tournament that was released last week. But the notable update from his original bracket that came out in April is that he now has the Spartans in the Midwest Region — which will be hosted in Detroit this year. So should the Spartans make it past the first weekend, they’d be playing right down the road for a trip to the Final Four.

Lunardi has a total of nine Big Ten teams in his updated bracket projection — which is the most of any conference.
