December 7, 2024: Michigan State came out on Saturday and destroyed the Nebraska Cornhuskers 89-52 to open the Spartans’ home Big Ten play. The 37 point margin was tied for the second biggest Big Ten winning margin for MSU in their history.

The game looked exactly as you would expect for a blowout win at home against a very good Big Ten opponent. Nebraska was ranked 41st on KenPom coming into the game so we expected a close and competitive game. What transpired over 40 minutes became much less thanks to Michigan State’s defense, relentless pace, and domination on the boards. In many ways, it felt like a very old school Izzo team.

The Spartans were led by 18 points from Jaden Akins and 12 rebounds from Jaxon Kohler (7 offensive). Of course, a victory this decisive couldn’t happen without everyone chipping and MSU’s players did that in spades. So now MSU sits at 2-0 in the Big Ten and will have ten days off for Finals and time to work on themselves before finishing up their last 3 games of the non conference schedule leading up to the final 18 Big Ten games.

If you have a home in Michigan you know the importance of clearing water efficiently away from your home off the roof. Unfortunately, the outdoor beauty of Michigan means you have to deal with leaves and debris that pile up in your gutters. Sometimes, those gutters also can’t keep up with the rain or leave puddles by your foundation.

If you live in the Grand Rapids area (Muskegon to Saugatuck to Rockford to Lowell) contact Kurt Stauffer at the Brothers that Just Do Gutters. (https://www.brothersgutters.com/grand-rapids-mi/).

If you’re anywhere in the metro Detroit area the Brothers have you covered too! (https://www.brothersgutters.com/metro-detroit-mi/). They are real professionals who will clean, repair, or replace your gutters and protect your home quickly and efficiently with friendly service.
