Michigan State remains safely in the field of 68 in the eyes of ESPN’s Joe Lunardi — but they did slip a seed line in his latest bracket projection.
Lunardi has slid the Spartans down to a No. 9 seed in his most recent NCAA Tournament bracket projection released on Tuesday. The Spartans would face No. 8 seed Virginia if the committee followed Lunardi’s bracket projection.
Michigan State is one of only six teams from the Big Ten. No other teams from the league appear to be in the bubble picture at this time either.
