Michigan State fell to the Auburn Tigers in the Elite 8 of the NCAA Tournament, ending their 2024-25 season.
It was a bad night to go cold for Michigan State, who shot an abysmal 28% from three-point land and ultimately could not find a timely bucket against the Tigers.
The season will now come to an end for Michigan State, who had a good run, making it to the Elite 8 and winning the Big Ten regular season title.
Taking a look at the loss to the Tigers, there are some clear trends in the plus-minus that led to this defeat, showing which players played solid and which players faltered on the biggest stage of the Spartans.
Take a look and analyze the plus-minus numbers for the Spartans:
The Spartan big man was a plus on the court for the Spartans, pacing the way with a +9 rating in 14 minutes of game action.
In 30 minutes of action, Richardson excelled for the Spartans with a +7 rating, despite having struggles scoring from the field.
Fidler only played 14 minutes in the game, but the Spartans transfer made his best efforts known in his final collegiate game, giving MSU a +5 effort.
The Spartan leader and point guard plated 26 minutes in the game, giving MSU a +4 advantage during his minutes.
The senior played his final game in the green and white, and played 31 minutes during the game, finishing with 15 points in a -1 effort.
The Spartans big man was the leading scorer, giving a double-double effort in the game, despite a -9 while on the court for 28 minutes.
Despite shining in the tournament, Carr did not have his best against Auburn on Sunday evening, going -12 in 21 minutes.
Cooper solidified himself as the Spartans best big to end the season, but amongst a long list of Spartan players, the big had an off night against Auburn, finishing as a -12 in 13 minutes.
Of all the nights to forget, Holloman may of had the biggest one. In 20 minutes of action, the junior guard was a -21 while shooting 0-for-10 from the field.
