Revenge was on the menu on Saturday night as Michigan State basketball picked up a stunning win over No. 9 Maryland on the road.

Donning the neon green and black uniforms for a big road battle, Michigan State came away with yet another big road win for the third straight time. The Spartans have won three straight road games over No. 22 Illinois, Nebraska and now No. 9 Maryland, 78-66.

That also marks the fourth win for the Spartans in the last five games and three of those have come against ranked opponents.

Don’t look now but the Spartans are playing their best basketball of the season and (*checks calendar*) it’s officially March. This team has gone from a projected 6/7 seed after losing three straight games not long ago to a top-four seed with the potential to earn a 2/3 seed by winning out in the regular season and making the Big Ten title game.

It’s been a roller-coaster season, but we’re starting to see Michigan State play the way we expected at the beginning of the year and they just had their best game at Maryland.

Just how good were the Spartans at Maryland? They led wire-to-wire and dominated in every facet: shooting, rebounding and defensively.

Who graded out the highest in the Spartans’ win over Maryland?
