INDIANAPOLIS – Will Tom Izzo complain about how physical Butler is? Will a future NBA player complain about Butler cheating?
There could be all kinds of storylines coming out of the Nov. 17 game between Michigan State and Butler at Hinkle Fieldhouse in college basketball’s Gavitt Games. Announcement of the pairing was made Thursday.
The series matching Big East and Big Ten teams was canceled last year because of the pandemic but reinstated for Nov. 15-18. All games will be televised on FS1 or BTN.
MSU/Butler is a rematch of the 2010 Final Four semifinal, won by Butler 52-50 at Lucas Oil Stadium.
