Michigan State has struggled severely during the month of February. The Spartans have lost five of their last six games, with the lone victory coming against Indiana. A team that was firmly in the Top 25 and in the mix for a B1G regular season title needs to pick up a few key wins.
Saturday’s game against Purdue provides the Spartans with that opportunity. Tucker wants to provide that extra spark.
