    MSU Shows Some Promise in Loss to #1 Kansas 77-69

    November 12, 2024: Michigan State falls to Kansas 77-69 in the Champions Classic in Atlanta tonight. Although there were some very encouraging signs to the offense tonight, for the second straight year they are struggling to hit beyond the arc early again the season. The Spartans went 3-24 from behind the line despite many of them being wide open. On the bright side of things, they were much improved over last year in their fast break, half court offensive tempo, and insistence on attacking the rim and drawing fouls. Once again, Jaxon Kohler led the team in rebounding with ten (4 offensive) and also dropped 12 points behind Fidler’s team high 15. Are you looking for collegiate apparel including Spartan gear?

    MSU Prepares for Final Champions Classic Matchup Against Kansas

    November 10, 2024: Michigan State will take on Kansas in what might be the rubber match for their meetings in the Champions Classic. The teams currently have a 2-2 record against each other in the early season premiere showdown and this is very likely one of the last years of the Classic. Conference realignments and TV deals are rapidly changing the face of the non-conference schedules meaning these marquee events are going away. Michigan State has yet to be tested this year with high end competition so Kansas will present a new challenge for the relatively young squad. Kansas is coming off a 3 point victory over North Carolina at home. This game will also feature another matchup for MSU with former Wolverine center, Hunter Dickinson.

    Niagara Falls to MSU 96-60

    November 8, 2024: Michigan State played their second game of the year where Niagara falls to MSU 96-60 behind the outstanding play of Jaxon Kohler. Kohler finished the game with 20 points, 13 rebounds (6 offensive), and 2 steals in just 17 minutes on the floor. This was the first time that he finished the way we’ve been waiting for. The Spartans were also helped with great play again from their guards. Fears finished with 7 points and 8 assists to just one turnover. Akins had 10 points and 6 rebounds while Richardson scored 12 and had 2 rebounds. MSU will now head to take on top ranked Kansas in the Champions Classic with (hopefully) their last time facing Hunter Dickinson. Are you looking for collegiate apparel including Spartan gear?

    Spartans Prepare for Last Warm Up Before Champions Classic - Niagara

    November 6, 2024: Michigan State will take on Kansas in the Champions Classic next week but first, they host Niagara on Thursday at the Breslin Center. This expects to be the easiest competition of the season for the Spartans. So in this game we look to see if some early signs continue for the Green & White. Namely, will they continue to hit the offensive glass hard and will we see the same Jaden Akins we saw in the Monmouth game? Are you looking for collegiate apparel including Spartan gear?

    Spartans Win the Opener 81-57 Over Monmouth

    November 4, 2024: Unlike last year, Michigan State opened up the season with a win over Monmouth, 81-57. The Spartans looked different in this game in that they had their fast break humming and were dominant on the boards racking up almost 50% offensive rebounding rate. The one similarity to last season’s opener against James Madison was the dreadful 3 point shooting (3-18). Despite the shooting, Jaden Akins was phenomenal scoring 23 points, nine rebounds, 5 assists and took over the game in the second half scoring at the rim and at the free throw line.

    MSU Readies for a New Season: Monmouth Opener

    November 2, 2024: It's finally here! The MSU opener at the Breslin Center and the start of a new point guard era in the Green and White. Redshirt Freshman Jeremy Fears, Jr. will lead the team against the Monmouth Hawks in what they hope will be a better start to the season than last year.  There will be quite a few things we will be looking for in the game - notably offensive rebounding and tempo. Hopefully we will see a return to the Spartans punishing teams on the offensive glass and more of a transition game than we've seen in the recent past.

    MSU Deep Dive Season Preview 2024-25

    October 30, 2024: At Michigan State under Tom Izzo, we refer to various eras based on who is playing the point. So with the departure of AJ Hoggard, MSU has officially left the Hoggard Era and entered the Fears Era. Jeremy Fears, Jr. might have had his season last year cut short after suffering a gun shot wound in his leg from a random intruder over winter break. Fortunately for the Spartans and Fears, he appears to be fully healthy and ready to begin a new point guard era which looks to be one with a punishing fast break. But this season won't only be a story only about Jeremy Fears, Jr. but about the cast around him as well.  We have a bulked up Xavier Booker and health and trimmed down Jaxon Kohler at the 4. New portal addition wing Frankie Fidler might lead the team in scoring with Coen Carr flying high behind him off the bench. We also have new 7 footer Zapala moving well for a guy his size and shoring up the defense in the middle.  Of course, there are questions too. Will Jaden Akins show a real ability to attack the rim? Will Tre Holloman continue his 40+% rate from behind the arc and find himself playing the one and two? Or what role will the new freshmen Jase Richardson and Kur Teng play since they look ready to start on a number of Big Ten teams this year?

    MSU Beats Ferris St. 85-67 in Final Warmup Before Season

    October 29, 2024: Michigan State finished its last preseason tuneup against the Ferris State Bulldogs at the Breslin Center with a 85-67 victory. There were a lot of things to like about what we saw and a few negative aspects to the team. On the positive side we saw Frankie Fidler display what looks to be his scoring acumen. The freshmen tandem guards of Kur Teng and Jase Richardson were fantastic and will be tough for Izzo to keep off the floor. Coen Carr brought a new level to his game as did Jaxon Kohler. As for negatives, Jaden Akins continues to struggle offensively getting into the lane and consistently hitting shots. The rest of his game was sound but at some point he needs to figure out his offense and role. Also, the interior defense provided by the centers was overall dreadful and hopefully will get cleaned up before they start taking on tougher competition.
