At the time of writing this post, Tom Izzo has never lost to Oakland, but they have always been a team, like Detroit Mercy, who have always been able to test Izzo’s teams and keep them on their toes. That has been the case so far today in the first half of MSU’s game against Oakland as the Golden Grizzlies have been giving the Spartans their best shot. MSU currently leads 44-40.
However, the Spartans still remain in control of this game going into the half, and they did flash some impressive play in the first half. Below, we compiled the best highlights of the first half from Twitter:
