Michigan lead to 60-57, the smallest
margin since the 4:40 mark of the
first half.
"When they cut it to three, it.
looked as if we were helter-skelter
on offense and we were trying to do
things too quickly," Fisher said.
"When things don't go right on
offense, sometimes you don't play
well on defense," Fisher said. "So
we talked about defending them
better, first, and then we told them to
look inside."
His strategy paid off as
Michigan's big men - Chris Webber
and Juwan Howard - scored four
points in a 7-0 run which extended
the lead back to 10, all but. sealing
the Spartans' fate.
" I thought if we ever got ahead,"
Michigan State coach Jud Ileathcote
said, "maybe we could win. But we
didn't do that."
Webber led all scorers with 22
points, while Howard contributed 16
of his own and grabbed 13 re-
bounds.
Michigan shut down the
Spartans' leading scorer, Shawn
Respert, holding him to only 7
points - 13 under his average - on 2-
for-14 shooting.
"They're pretty talented,"
Respert said. "I don't think many
teams can check me like that.
"We're an inside-outside team,
and for it to work the outside shots
need to fall. That just didn't happen
today."
The inside part of the Spartan
game also had a sub-par perfor-
mance. The Spartans were outre-
bounded, 44-37, and were ineffec-
tive in stopping Webber and Ioward
in the paint.
"We knew Pep(lowski) and
Miller would have to neutralize
(Michigan's) inside gave, and they
were nowhere to be found,"
IHeathcote said. "(Kris) Weshinskey
and Respert were not hitting the
three pointers, and the best laid plan
did not happen."

Losing not a problem
for Jud wanna-bes
by Andy De Korte
Daily Basketball Writer
EAST LANSING - Did you ever have a crazy uncle? I do not mean
crazy like a fox, mind you. More along the lines of the uncle who walked
around your backyard in his underwear talking to plants. A man like that
was spotted at the Breslin Center last night.
In the main attraction, Michigan went into the Breslin Center and beat
the Michigan State basketball team, 73-69, in unspectacular fashion. Despit4
being a tightly-contested game, the fact that Michigan never trailed caused
the eyes to wander around the new-fangled fieldhouse.
Invariably, though, they ended up focused on the balding man in the
green jacket - MSU coach Jud Heathcote.
Whether Jud was beating his chest like a gorilla or pounding his fist into
his head, he was always entertaining.
The Spartan fans take their cue from him as well. His popularity on cam-
pus has spawned a fan club - the Jud Club - whose members don toupees
with thin white cotton strands and the trademark green sportcoat.
But Jud is just the seed from which madcap Spartan antics blossom. In
stark contrast to the mild Crisler fans, the Spartan faithful drowned its op-s
ponent in a constant state of noise. And keep in mind the Spartans never led.
The fans had a field day harassing the Fab Five, who made their return as
a starting unit last night.
Apparently fun, not ingenuity, is the focus in East Lansing. While the
pom-pon crew was double the size of Michigan's, and the 15-member dance
team thrust to AC /DC's "Shook me all Night Long," there were subtle dif-
ferences indicative of the meager MSU intellect.
In a cheer similar to one found in Ann Arbor, the MSU cheerleaders
_4r scrambled around on the Breslin Center floor, spelling out "M-S-U" instead
of the entire words. Presumably, Rob Pelinka might say, to minimize the
risk of a spelling error.
"I think sometimes people say that the students at Michigan State went
there because they didn't get into Michigan," he said prior to the game.
"(Michigan is) a better school academically and I think they have a little re-

sentment and sometimes they take that out on us when we go in there as far
as what they say to the players."
One instance of Spartan creativity that towered above the Crisler Crazies
was the sign-making capability. The evening's top marks went to a
foursome dressed as drag queens.
In a response to Juwan Howard's game-ending hand gesture to the
Breslin faithful last season, the students' sign retorted, "Hey Juwan, I'nm
pregnant."
Luckily for Michigan coach Steve Fisher, it was his team that was having
all the fun on the court. A barrage of Chris Webber dunks ended the last
Spartan run and their last legitimate shot at victory. Despite shooting 16-for-
26 from the charity stripe, Fisher and his crew got the last laugh in that facet
as well, as the Spartans shot a woeful 10-for-23.
One may wonder how much fun
team had actually won the game.
