So much for that highly-anticipated game between No. 3 Michigan State and No. 4 Kansas in the championship of the Maui Invitational. Virginia Tech didn't cooperate on setting up a Spartans vs. Jayhawks showdown by upsetting Michigan State 71-66 Monday in the tournament's first round
The loss to the Hokies sends the Spartans into the consolation bracket where they will face Georgia on Tuesday, while 6-0 Virginia Tech will play Dayton in the semifinals.
The loss to Virginia Tech was the second time the Spartans have been defeated this season. Michigan State, the preseason No. 1 team in the AP Top 25 poll, lost 69-62 to Kentucky on the first night of the season.
Kansas had no problem advancing to the semifinals. Devon Dotson had 19 points to lead the Jayhawks to a 93-63 victory over tournament host Chaminade. Kansas will face BYU, who defeated UCLA 78-63 in the last first-round game of the day, in the other semifinal Tuesday.
