For the second time this season, Michigan State basketball beat Oregon, and this time it helped them advance in the Big Ten Tournament as the Spartans took down the Ducks 74 to 64 on Friday. While Oregon played MSU evenly in the second half, they were unable to overcome a 10 point deficit they carried into halftime.

Jase Richardson scored 17 points to lead four players in double-figures for Michigan State (26-5), which advances to face the winner of No. 4 seed UCLA and No. 5 seed Wisconsin in the semifinals on Saturday (10 a.m., CBS).
