This Michigan State basketball hype video released ahead of the 2018 NCAA Tournament is all you need to get you through the week.

Are you ready for the NCAA Tournament? We are just hours away from the first round’s tip-off on Thursday afternoon, but Michigan State doesn’t play Bucknell until Friday evening in Detroit.

The Spartans will be on upset alert in the first round as Bucknell is a quality mid-major opponent, but they have the talent to be one of the few serious national title contenders.

It might be early in the week still, but it’s time to get your mind on Friday’s big game.

What do Rocky Balboa, Draymond Green and Tom Izzo all have in common? They have combined to be part of one heck of an NCAA Tournament hype video for Michigan State. No, they didn’t make this video, it was fan-made, but quotes from each are playing in the background at different points.

Just watch and feel your heart beat faster in anticipation for Friday’s tourney opener for the Spartans.

If that didn’t get you fired up for Friday’s game, I don’t know what will. The Spartans are facing a tough test in the Bison, but if Michigan State plays its style of basketball, they’re going to be tough to beat. Will we see an inspired Spartan team on Friday and through the weekend?
