The Basketball Bulldogs' final home game of the season had it all: non-stop action, crowd participation, an injury that elicited a collective Humphrey Coliseum groan, and a Senior Night win over an SEC foe. Sophomore Elgin Bailey was among team members whose scrappy play helped MSU (18-12, 8-7) defeat the Florida Gators 80-71 in a regionally televised game. In going for a rebound, Bailey landed hard, causing a severe dislocation to his right foot. Thankfully, no bones were broken.
