Mike Chappell scored 10 of his 19 points during a 22-5 first-half run, and Charlie Bell added 20 off the bench as No. 5 href="http://www.sportsline.com/u/basketball/college/teams/schedules/BIG10/MAY.htm">Michigan State beat Oakland 86-51 Saturday night.

Michigan State (8-2) extended its home winning streak to 18 games, the longest streak since the Spartans began playing at the Breslin Center in 1989.

Oakland (2-8) was playing without two starters. Leading scorer Dan Champagne has a right hand injury, while guard Brad Buddenborg, the Grizzlies' second-leading scorer, has a sprained left ankle.

The Grizzlies stayed with the Spartans for the first 10 minutes with their strategy of using the full 35-second shot clock.

A 3-point basket by Thom at the midway point of the first half tied the game at 18-18, but Michigan State answered with a 22-5 run to take a 40-23 lead with 1:23 remaining in the first half.

Bell's 3-pointer at the buzzer made it 43-28 at halftime.

Thom led Oakland with 20 points.
