What Seed Is Michigan State For March Madness? Odds of Spartans Men’s Basketball Seed For 2025 NCAA Tournament
Now that Tom Izzo and the Michigan State Spartans have virtually locked up the school’s first Big Ten regular season title in a half-decade, it’s worth wondering where the East Lansing Big Ten stalwart goes from here, after finishing the regular season with a 26-5 record and winning seven straight games to end the year.
Fresh off a 79-62 home conquest of No. 17 Michigan on Sunday, Izzo and company are off to Indianapolis, where they’ll be the top seed in this week’s Big Ten Tournament, looking to up the team’s odds of landing on the top seed line for the first time since 2012.
According to ESPN bracket guru Joe Lunardi, Izzo and company are currently projected to be a second seed in the South region, playing 15th-seeded Furman in Cleveland, while Michigan DraftKings Sportsbook currently has MSU at +2200 to win it all this spring.
With that in mind, BetMichigan.com broke down the latest odds on where we see Izzo’s team being seeded in the 2025 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, with odds ranging from a top seed all the way down to a three seed right now.

Michigan State NCAA Tournament Seed Possibilities
Despite Michigan State’s regular season conference title and seven-game win streak to end the year, not much has changed regarding the Spartans’ seed in March Madness, with -140 odds of landing as a two seed in 2025.
That figure ranks ahead of the other two seed line odds in this week’s update, as Michigan State holds +155 odds of summitting their way to the top seed line by Selection Sunday, to go with +5000 odds that they drop down to the third seed line between now and Sunday.
For now, Izzo and his players can revel in the team’s return to glory, with a 17-point home win over the loathed Wolverines being the latest bit of schadenfreude for the East Lansing roundball powerhouse in what’s been a return to form type of season in East Lansing.
