MSU basketball moves up a seed line in latest CBS Sports’ bracketology update

Michigan State’s strong week on the hardwood resulted in a higher seed in the latest bracketology report from CBS Sports.

The Spartans picked up a pair of NCAA Tournament resume-boosting victories last week over Maryland and Ohio State. Jerry Palm moved them up one spot to a No. 9 seed in Monday’s updated bracket projection. Palm has Michigan State playing No. 8 seed NC State in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Michigan State is one of nine teams from the Big Ten listed in Palm’s projected bracket. The others are Purdue, Indiana, Illinois, Rutgers, Iowa, Maryland, Northwestern and Wisconsin.
