Tom Izzo and Michigan State basketball were relieved to hear their names called on Selection Sunday. Watch their reactions.<\/h2>\n

The NCAA Tournament selection committee did not make it easy on Michigan State basketball<\/a>, that\u2019s for sure. The Spartans were sweating this Selection Sunday out, especially after their resume took a large hit<\/a> thanks to the many upsets across the country on Satuday. But everyone, and I mean everyone, breathed a huge sigh of relief after MSU\u2019s name was called during the Selection Show<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t a norm for the Spartans when it comes to the Selection Show. Usually they know they\u2019re comfortably in the tournament and are just waiting to see what seed\/opponent they\u2019ll get. However, this year we all were just hoping to make it in.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sure many of you had some crazy reactions after MSU\u2019s name was announced on Sunday, but let\u2019s take a look and see how the team and Tom Izzo reacted.<\/p>\n
