2. Rebounding battle wins games
Michigan State has struggled on the glass at times this season. They especially struggled against Michigan but were shooting well enough to keep the Wolverines away. However, letting Hunter Dickinson and Co. get 16 offensive rebounds was not a good look.
The Spartans did the same thing against Northwestern which is why they lost one of those games and let the other one be interesting. At times this season, the rebounding has been atrocious and it needs to be cleaned up.
For a few games there against Wisconsin and Illinois, it looked like the ship was going in the right direction. However, they went backward against Michigan. Look for the Spartans to be physical down low and keep the Terrapins off the glass. They will get back on course, rebounding the ball with ferocity, and punish Maryland in that category.
