A couple of weeks ago, I decided to select my all-time Michigan State basketball starting five from the Tom Izzo era. That task was extremely difficult, but I don't think it compares to what I'm about to do next.

This time around, we are going to rank the last 10 Michigan State basketball teams from worst to best. Now there are definitely some obvious tiers among these 10 teams as some teams were extremely good and some were... not so good. But a lot of the teams had very similar seasons so slotting them in their individual spots was challenging. But I'm going to give it my best shot.

One note before jumping in is that these rankings are based strictly on which teams I think would be able to beat the others. I'm not ranking them simply on which team's had the better record and season accomplishments, but that does play a role.

Quick shoutout to Michigan State Content for the idea.

So without further ado, let's start with No. 10.
