The Spartans took care of business last night with their biggest win of the season as they edged Texas and it was Kalin Lucas who gave the Spartans a huge spark off the bench.  He scored a career high 18 points to go with six rebounds and six assists.  They needed some production off the bench because Drew Neitzel was held in check and he took just six shots.

Goran Suton was then man on the glass with a team high nine rebounds.  This doesn’t happen too often, but Texas had more rebounds then the Spartans yet MSU still pulled it out.  They did hold Texas to under 40% shooting but for whatever reason, Texas came out firing and took 29 shots from behind the three point line.

MSU plays Wisconsin-Green Bay next Saturday and hopefully that game is a mere formality before the Big Ten schedule kicks off after the New Year.  Hopefully you all have a very Sparty holiday between now and then.
