    The grievance season is officially open! 🏀🔥 On this week's episode of This Is Sparta B1G, the crew celebrates Cedric Swerve's 48th birthday before diving headfirst into the unfiltered MSU basketball post-mortem. The guys break down why the Spartans fell short against UConn in the Sweet 16, the lack of consistent three-point shooting that plagued the team all season, and the ongoing debate — is Tom Izzo still held to the right standard after 26 years without a national championship?The crew also weighs in on the Jaden Ivey controversy and what it means when athletes speak out on social media, plus they give their Final Four predictions with Arizona, UConn, and that team down in "Ass Harbor" still in the mix. 👀Later, the conversation shifts to MSU football — is Jonathan Smith getting a fair shake? What should the expectations be for Coach Fitz in year one? And what would it take for Michigan State to finally go get a one-and-done talent that can change the program? The guys also talk McDonald's All-American prospects heading to East Lansing, the Mateen Cleaves assistant coach theory, and a wild conspiracy theory about KJ Izzo being "stashed" at Bowling Green.Plus — shoutout to Jason's dad turning 90! 🙏Topics Covered:MSU Basketball Sweet 16 loss breakdownTom Izzo accountability debate — the Calipari comparisonJaden Ivey drama & athletes on social mediaFinal Four predictionsMSU Football expectations for Coach FitzMcDonald's All-Americans & recruiting outlookThe KJ Izzo/Bowling Green conspiracy theoryTop 5 MSU RBs of the last 26 years🍺 Brought to you by Coors Light — the official sponsor of This Is Sparta B1G.🔔 Subscribe & drop your grievances in the comments! 📲 Follow us on Instagram | YouTube | TikTok#MichiganState #Spartans #MSUBasketball #TomIzzo #GoGreen #ThisIsSpartaBIG #CollegeBasketball #BigTen #MSUFootball #FinalFour #NIL #TransferPortal Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/this-is-sparta-msu--5664600/support.

    Changing the Narrative | This Is Sparta B1G #294

    4 Big Ten teams in the Sweet 16. Nebraska makes history. Michigan State keeps rolling. The 'B1G chokes in March' narrative might finally be dead — and we're here for it. Who's the biggest non-B1G threat to MSU? We get into all of it. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/this-is-sparta-msu--5664600/support.

    NIL, Izzo, and the New Era: Why Sparty Has to Spend | This Is Sparts B1G 293

    Michigan State loses again to Michigan and the chat is on Jason, Sean, Swerve and Slow Sipper from the opening tip. We break down the rivalry loss at Crisler, the Jeremy Fears flagrant, the “cylinder” rule, and whether the refs got it right or completely flipped the call. Then we zoom out: is Tom Izzo too old-school for the NIL/portal era, how much will it really take to keep Fears in East Lansing, and can MSU realistically make a Final Four run with this roster? From arguing if Sweet Sixteen/Elite Eight is “good enough,” to debating Ishbia’s wallet, future portal targets, and whether Michigan has actually closed the gap on Sparty, this episode is part therapy session, part barbershop, and part hard truth about where Michigan State basketball really stands right now.

    Kenneth Walker III just became a Super Bowl MVP, and the guys break down how K9 took over the biggest stage, what it means for Michigan State, and why running backs still matter in today’s game.

Plus, reactions to the Bad Bunny halftime show, the end of Detroit’s bowl game, wild NCAA eligibility decisions (hello, ninth-year linebacker), and some candid MSU hoops talk after another chippy Big Ten weekend.​ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/this-is-sparta-msu--5664600/support.
