December 18, 2025: Michigan State will once again have their annual matchup against Greg Kampe and his Oakland Grizzlies. This year the game is in Detroit at Little Caesar’s Arena and is sure to feature two grumpy coaches wearing ugly sweaters. Although Oakland hasn’t won in 22 tries, they will probably give MSU a competitive and challenging game.

Despite MSU’s 10-1 record, there are a lot of questions coming into the game starting with the rotation changes bringing Denham Wojcik into a more prominent role as the backup point guard to Jeremy Fears. This has changed the Spartans defensively when Fears is on the bench and left more questions than answers at the shooting guard position with it now being even more clogged up than before with Ugochuckwu, Scott, Teng, and Fort all vying for minutes. The question is whether there will be more answers or questions after this matchup.

December 16, 2025: Michigan State returned home and took on the Toledo Rockets and promptly stomped the Rockets 92-69. Although the win looked comfortable this was definitely a game of two halves.

In the first half, MSU played a nice offensive game both on the boards and behind the arc finishing with 58 points. They also held Toledo to just 28 points with some stifling defense. The second half, however, was a different story as Toledo managed to cut the lead to 15 points behind a rash of Spartan turnovers and some poorer shooting.

Ultimately, Michigan State comes away with the win and moves to 10-1 on the season with just two more non-conference games to go. Next up is their annual affair with Oakland in what might be another ugly sweater contest between Izzo and Kampe.

December 14, 2025: Michigan State returns back to the Breslin after a less than impressive performance to close out the first week of conference play at Happy Valley. Fortunately for the Spartans, they are 9-1/2-0 which isn’t such a bad place to be after ten games.

But as we said after the game, there’s still a lot of work to do with the team and luckily plenty of time to figure some stuff out which might be over the final 3 non-conference games staring Tuesday night against Toledo.

After so much concern has been expressed by the shooting guard position, it seems MSU may have solved it with the emergence of Divine Ugochukwu. Unfortunately, that may have created a new problem at backup point guard for Fears. Certainly one of the more interesting conundrums Izzo has had to deal with during his tenure at MSU.

The one bright spot for Michigan State was the insertion of Divine Ugochukwu into the starting lineup where he scored 23 points on 8-10 shooting (5-5 from 3). How MSU handles the minute allocation and rotation with two point guards going forward will certainly be something to watch.

December 13, 2025: Michigan State played its first true home game today and snuck out of Happy Valley with a 76-72 win over Penn State. The game was a weird one in which MSU led by double digits in the first half but then gave it all back (and then some) managing to cut the Penn State lead to 3 by halftime, 36-33.

The second half was another blistering start for the Spartans where they got out to a 10 point lead again but then gave up 11 straight. The blown leads were largely due to a rash of Spartan turnovers as they finished with 17 leading to 23 Penn State points.

The one bright spot for Michigan State was the insertion of Divine Ugochukwu into the starting lineup where he scored 23 points on 8-10 shooting (5-5 from 3). How MSU handles the minute allocation and rotation with two point guards going forward will certainly be something to watch.

December 11, 2025: It’s our last week with just the top 4 seed lines and there hasn't been a whole lot of movement at the top. Michigan is still the overall number one seed while Iowa State and Purdue switched their two and one seeds respectively after the Cyclones went into Mackey Arena and blitzed the Boilers.

Their victory was enough to push the Big 12 above the Big 10 in the power standings. We’re getting close to the first full bracket reveal next week. Bracket Dom is putting together his list and checking to see who’s been naughty and nice. Will your team be in the field?

December 10, 2025: Michigan State dropped it’s first game of the season to top ranked Duke last Saturday and is looking to get back to its winning ways as it returns to Big Ten play Saturday in Happy Valley. There is probably no better matchup to wash away your woes then the Nittany Lions who - despite their 8-2 record - are struggling this season.

Penn State is coming off a 41 point loss to the Hoosiers in Bloomington and now they have to face the Spartans. Penn State is statistically not a very good defense which was on full exhibition against Indiana Tuesday night. Michigan State will look to exploit the Lions and see if they can get back on the horse before finishing up their non-conference schedule.

December 6, 2025: Michigan State dropped it’s first game of the season to top ranked Duke 66-60 in front of an electric crowd at the Breslin Center. As expected, it was a defensive showcase and the top 10 defenses limited the other in their shooting. In the end, Duke made just a few more plays and shots and forced the action enough in the second half to get to the free throw line which was the difference in the final score.

Despite the loss, MSU finishes the difficult part of the first half of their season 8-1 with wins over Kentucky, Arkansas, and North Carolina and a 1-0 start to the Big Ten season. Carson Cooper’s individual performance was impressive as he finished with 15 points and a career high16 rebounds while guarding Duke’s best player, Cameron Boozer. Meanwhile, despite his shooting woes, Jeremy Fears logged 13 assists to just 1 turnover to lead the Spartans.

December 5, 2025: A lot of movement in the seed list since we last had a show. The new number one overall seed is Michigan who joins Duke, Arizona, and Purdue on the one line. Two seeds are Michigan State, Iowa State, Vanderbilt, and UConn. BYU, Alabama, Houston, and Gonzaga are the 3s with Kansas, UNC, Louisville, and Tennessee rounding things out at the 4.

The conference rankings are just about set. Dom has the Big Ten leading the way over the Big 12, SEC, ACC, and then Big East. However, if one just used NET rankings the SEC might be the most consistently deep leagues just without any teams at the top.
