			<description><![CDATA[I'll give everyone a &quot;Lacy exclusive&quot; before I participate in a pregame media roundtable discussion during the Spartan Radio Network's broadcast of today's game: MSU 77, Maryland 71.
Yes, the Spartans are ailing with injuries to Kalin Lucas (ankle), Chris Allen (foot) and Delvon Roe]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[If you don't know much about Greivis Vasquez now, you will probably know a lot more Sunday when his Maryland Terrapins square off with MSU.
The ACC Player of the Year is one hard dude to cover because he's a 6-foot-6, 200-pound point guard that's strong with the ball and mentally tough.

			<description><![CDATA[Spokane, Wash. - It's official: MSU plays Maryland at 2:40 p.m. (Eastern) Sunday here at Veterans Memorial Arena.
I asked Terrapins coach Gary Williams on Friday night what it will be like facing his friend Tom Izzo.
His response: &quot;Tom's teams always play. It doesn't matter who the players]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Interesting note heading into MSU's second round NCAA Tournament matchup scheduled to tip off 2:40 p.m. (Eastern) Sunday at Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena:
MSU has a 10-4 record in second-round tournament games since the field expanded to 64 teams in 1985. Out of those games, Tom Izzo has won]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Spokane, Wash. - Below is what New Mexico State's Jahmar Young said about MSU's Kalin Lucas after the Spartans' 70-67 win:
&quot;That dude Lucas - Kalin Lucas - is a great player. Did he make me eat my words? No, but he showed up and that's what good players (are) supposed to do.&quot;

			<description><![CDATA[Both teams are running. The Aggies are backing down. Jahmar Young is backing up his pregame smack talk with some pretty nice plays. The Spartans have all they can handle now. It's hard to compare Young to any Big Ten player. He's long and lanky kind of like Penn State guard Talor Battle. But this]]></description>

It will be interesting to see who Izzo puts into the game late. Summers is playing well. But will his defense be good enough to earn]]></description>
