Spartans favored to win NCAA title over Indiana State
Edward L. Ronders reports MSU as the favorite in the national final against Indiana State led by Larry Bird. MSU’s defense front and quick start could seal the championship, while Bird’s foul trouble and ISU’s experience in close games form the contest’s key uncertainties. Prediction: Michigan State 79 Indiana State 68. Baseball Fever follows with season openers and Baseball ’79 features.
