It’s been a remarkable run — by a team that’s grown and evolved like very few teams do during the course of a season. This is the same MSU team that in November used a narrow loss to Kansas and an overtime victory over North Carolina as measuring sticks. The latter was celebrated. The Jayhawks and Tar Heels are both having miserable seasons by their standards, each with 11 losses already. MSU grew into something far greater than the team it was then.
