MSU vs. U of M, Part Three… the Trifecta

Yes, Michigan State played the University of Michigan three times (count ’em: one…three) in three weeks, the last for the Big Ten Championship. Here was the lead-up to that one…

Holy moly, here we go
Didn’t we just do this a few days ago?
It’s us versus them (bring Cardizem!)
This is the Big Ten’s greatest show

So here we are now, this is round three
And them seeking revenge is highly likely
It’s the State of the Mitten, a great competition
And we want to go home with the trophy!

Let’s all get ready to settle in again
It’s a re-re-match of State/Michigan
There’s no need to fear; Coach Izzo is here
He’s not called Mr. March for nuthin’!

Now, they’ve got that guy with a name from hell
His name’s hard to say but he really plays well
Ignas Brazdeikis it’s true; that’s brahz-day-kiss to you
I just wish he’d stop channeling Johnny Manziel

Today is the day when we’re all Irish
So our green is brighter than that team may wish
Let McQuaid toss Tillman a no-look dish
And Kenny can finish with a three-point swish

Nick Ward’s gotta go for the offensive tip
And even Cassius, with the toe/ankle/knee/hip,
He’ll play hard as he can, cuz that’s how he is, man!
And this is the championship!

This one’ll be the most contested we’ve seen
Let’s hope the refs don’t call Ward’s legal screen
Break out the whole roster, put a cape on Foster
Cuz this one is gonna be mean

If everything for Sparty today works out right
We know East Lansing will party tonight
We’ll see couches burn near where students learn
And they’ll clean up the mess come daylight

It’s all a little greener on St. Patrick’s day
As we all get ready to watch Sparty play
Let’s hope we can quip “We won the Championship!”
As they cut down the net later today

Now you know how I typically end these, alright
With classic refrains of “Fight! Fight! Fight!”
The fight song we love, we can’t get enough of!
Let’s cheer together: “Go Green! Go White!”
