    MSU-Neitzel alert

    For those who haven't heard:

    ESPN News reports that Michigan State Spartans star guard Drew Neitzel will play but not start tonight’s game against the Michigan Wolverines.

    The Spartans, who opened as a 2-point favorite on the road, are currently down to a 1-point favorite with most sportsbooks.

    Neitzel has been fighting the flu this week. He's averaging 18.4 points per game for the Spartans, who are 21-8 straight up and 15-9 against the spread this year.

    The Wolverines are 19-10 straight up but only 10-14-1 against the spread.

    If Neitzel's even moderately affected by this, I think Michigan wins. Neitzel is the heart and soul of that MSU team and poses the biggest matchup problems.
