Jackson-Davis is on a two game run of making 16-of-19 (84.2 percent) from the stripe. Indiana opened the game like a team that wasn’t ready for a noon tip.

Trey Galloway and Tamar Bates added 17 points apiece.

“I think we were lucky to only be down a couple of buckets at halftime,” said Hauser, who had 14 points at the break, making 5 of 9 shots, and grabbed four rebounds at halftime. Akins’ 3-pointer, off a Hauser pump fake and pass, gave the Spartans their last advantage at 51-49 with 13:32 remaining. “And I thought (the Hoosiers) took advantage of us.” MSU went up, 21-14, on a Hoggard free throw, but he picked up his second foul less than a minute later and sat the final 8:17 of the half. We just came to play basketball,” Hoggard said of the Hoosiers’ physical play. Kopp picked up a flagrant foul that zapped the crowd buzz that built with Galloway hitting two 3-pointers to briefly give the Hoosiers a lead a few seconds earlier. Izzo said Tyson Walker, who scored eight points in 31 minutes, had a stomach virus that kept the senior guard out of practice Friday and Saturday. Trayce Jackson-Davis finished with 31 points and 15 rebounds for Indiana (13-6, 4-4), which shot 54.2% in the second half. “Every game, I feel like it's been like that the past three or four games, so you've kind of gotten used to it by now,” said senior forward Joey Hauser, who led MSU with 22 points and added six rebounds in 36 minutes. “He hadn't shot a ball, he hadn't touched a ball. Joey Hauser led the Spartans with 22 points and grabbed six rebounds. … I know this sounds stupid, but I'm proud of the way we competed under the circumstances.”
IU stretched its winning streak to three Sunday, with an impressive 82-69 win against Michigan State.
Assists_Michigan St. Rebounds_Michigan St. Jackson-Davis finished the game with 31 points, 15 rebounds, five blocks and four assists. Indiana actually outscored Michigan State at the free-throw line, and was more consistent in hitting its shots there in general. Turgid offense prompted a couple pronounced first-half scoring droughts and allowed Michigan State (13-7, 5-4) to stretch a 25-16 lead in the opening half. Jackson-Davis woke up from an 0-of-4 start to dominate the last 10-12 minutes.
Michigan State men's basketball got off to a hot start, led by Joey Hauser, at Indiana, but the Spartans wore down due to lack of depth in a loss to the ...
Today, the sophomore was 0-for-5 from the floor, including 0-for-3 from deep, and Michigan State was outscored by 15 points with him on the floor. However, Hoggard's impact goes far beyond scoring production, and when he's not on the floor this team gets all out of sorts. I've been impressed with freshman PG Tre Holloman this season, particularly on the defensive end, but he really struggled today when asked to play extended minutes in place of Hoggard. Hoggard picked up his second foul, and the wheels came off immediately after for the Spartans. Indiana adjusted its defense of Hauser from there, making things much more difficult on the Spartan senior after his flurry to begin the game. Michigan State has been plagued by slow starts often this season, but that wasn't the case today as Joey Hauser came out flame-throwing for the Spartans.
What the Spartans weren't ready to overcome was the fact guard Tyson Walker had been wiped out by a stomach virus, one bad enough the senior hadn't touched a ...
Akins drilled another 3-pointer with 13:34 to play to give Michigan State a 51-49 lead, but Indiana scored the next 10 to take control, going up 59-51 with 10:41 left in the game. But a defensive breakdown led to a Galloway 3-pointer at the other end and the back-and-forth continued. “I thought we competed a lot of it, but I think when Joey and A.J. That’s when Jackson-Davis started to heat up in the post, though Michigan State maintained a nine-point lead with Tyson Walker’s running layup with 7:44 to play gave the Spartans a 25-16 lead. During that stretch, though, Hoggard was called for his second foul on a 3-point shot from CJ Gunn, forcing him to the bench and helping ignite an Indiana surge that flipped control of the game. Jaxon Kohler offered a short reprieve by scoring two buckets in a row and putting Michigan State back in front at 29-26. But Indiana scored 11 in a row with a pair of 3-pointers from Bates, pushing the lead to 37-29 with 1:05 to play in the half. They did what they had to do to win it, we did what we had to do to lose.” None of it was enough to overcome the play of Trayce Jackson-Davis, who scored 31 even as Michigan State sent a variety of defensive coverages at he senior big man. “That’s the pick your poison,” Izzo said, referring to the choice in defending the number of quality big men in the Big Ten. It turned nine-point Michigan State lead into a five-point advantage for the Hoosiers by halftime. But an already thin lineup couldn’t withstand Hall’s absence, Walker’s lessened state and two key players sitting for a large chunk of the first half.
