That's interesting that WIN would make a mistake like that -- putting Michigan State WEST of the Mississippi River.

Usually the way it's worded in a historical context is "Penn State was the last eastern school to win the NCAA team title" which then allows for the school that's home to the Spartans in East Lansing, Michigan and its team title 40 yers ago.

As for what region MSU is located -- I agree with Wiltz: the Midwest... tho another correct possibility is "the Great Lakes" region. As an Ohio resident, I know some folks don't think of the state of the Bobcats and Buckeyes to be in the Midwest... but it's definitely NOT part of the east, IMHO.
