Michigan State Men’s Basketball Preview: No. 19 Spartans host Penn State

The No. 19 Michigan State Spartans will entertain the Penn State Nittany Lions for MSU’s Big Ten home opener, and will look to continue their positive trend from recent weeks.

On Wednesday, Tom Izzo’s team started off its conference campaign with a solid road win at Minnesota, and on paper, should expect the same result in this one. The aging Nittany Lions are once again a senior-laden squad with plenty of experience, even if Penn State’s players rarely if ever tasted the high hanging fruits in college basketball. To see if Penn State might steal one from the Breslin Center on Saturday, let’s go into the preview.
