MSU women's basketball opens NCAA Tournament play in Oklahoma
Michigan State women's basketball heads to Norman, Oklahoma, for the first round of the NCAA Tournament as a No. 5 seed, where four teams with four distinct identities will compete for a single trip to Sacramento. The Spartans open against Mountain West champion Colorado State, a defensive powerhouse that could exploit MSU's recent offensive struggles. Looming on the other side of the bracket is No. 4 Oklahoma, a rebounding machine averaging nearly 87 points per game, and No. 13 Idaho, a mid-major Cinderella riding an 18-game winning streak. With the regular season behind them, all that matters now is who shows up when it counts.
