February 5, 2026: Michigan State is coming off their first back to back losses of the season and returns home to meet the red hot Illini. Illinois just finished tearing apart their intrastate foe, Northwestern, by 40 in Champaign and are looking for another scalp. MSU’s Big Ten title hopes are on life support and this is a game that they absolutely need.

Adding intrigue to this game is the lineup situation for MSU. As of the recording, we did not have an injury status for Divine Ugochukwu but our expectation is that he is out for at least this game if not more. On top of that, Jeremy Fears is embroiled in controversy about his flagrant foul last night and a sudden reputation as a dirty player that began with Dusty May’s press conference where he called out Fears. Now can Fears navigate his way to playing hard without giving the refs a reason to T him up and can MSU survive the minutes that he will be forced to rest with second backup point guard Denham Wojcik?

February 4, 2026: Our first key to this game was to not let one become two but MSU just did that as they fell to the Gophers, 76-73 in a game that wasn’t that close. Minnesota outplayed the Spartans on both ends of the court and despite the game getting close at the end - really cruised in with a win to break their 7 game losing streak.

Jordan Scott started the game at the 2 and played reasonably well. Unfortunately, his play was overshadowed by the overall play of the team on both ends and the foot injury to back up point guard Divine Ugochukwu. His status going forward is still unknown at this point.

February 3, 2026:Specifically, he learned that the University of Florida has designed a video algorithm for when their coaches should challenge a call in a game. Hammer also created the trapezoid for excellence where he uses team analytics comparing offense and defense to tempo played. This shows which teams can play different ways and may suggest who will have better success in the NCAA tournament.

February 2, 2026: The Spartans head out on the road to Minneapolis to try and get rid of the bad taste in their mouth after that disastrous game against Michigan. The Barn isn’t quite as difficult a place to play that it was in the past because of the slide that Minnesota has had over the last few seasons.

Niko Medved took the helm this year and despite a general lack of talent and two starters lost for the year with injury the team has competed hard. The Gophers have been in just about every Big Ten game despite dropping 7 straight. Of note for MSU is the expectation that Jordan Scott will be inserted in the starting lineup in place of Divine Ugochukwu.

January 29, 2026: The game has finally arrived as rival #3 Michigan visit the Breslin Center and the #7 MSU Spartans to clash for first place in the Big Ten. In the first of two matchups this year, there is expected to be some extra juice with this game after what happened at mid court last season on Senior Night. Although we don’t expect any repeat of those antics, there is a lot riding on this game and it will be interesting to see which team is best equipped to handle the pressure of this big test.

Michigan is coming off a squeaker win at home over previously unbeaten Nebraska who was down two of their top three scorers while MSU miraculously pulled a win out of a hat in Piscataway in overtime. Can Fears and company make it 3 in a row over Dusty May? Will Kohler pull out of his shooting slump? Can the Spartans contain UM’s punishing interior attack of Johnson and Mara?

A lot of questions that fortunately, will be answered soon enough on a cold and blustery Friday evening in East Lansing.

January 27, 2026: The Spartans looked like they were playing in a trap game when they visited Rutgers on a snowy Tuesday night before their matchup against rival Michigan on Friday night. Turnovers was the name of the game as the Spartans committed 15 of them to only 5 by Rutgers. A 9 point deficit at half time was almost too much for MSU to overcome and they got the lead down to one possession and a tie but still need a three out of the corner by Divine Ugochukwu to force the game to overtime.

But the overtime was a different game as MSU took control early in the extra stanza behind 5 from Kohler and then Fears dominating both in the lane and at the free throw line. And then it was a Rutgers teams who suddenly were missing all the shots they were hitting earlier in the game and they faded away giving up an 18-6 run.
