Saturday's victory wasn’t the prettiest of wins for Michigan State basketball. It was sloppy, physical and, at times, hard to watch.
The Spartans won a defensive battle against Maryland 63-54. The teams shot a combined 38% from the field and 25% from beyond the 3-point arc. There were a combined 25 turnovers, 10 blocks, and 12 steals.
But this is the type of game that the Spartans may have needed to take the next step.
