On a day that could end with MSU’s football team winning a Big Ten championship and earning a birth in the College Football Playoff, the No. 3 MSU men’s basketball team took care of business, beating the Binghamton Bearcats in the first ever meeting between the two teams 76-33.
Senior guard Bryn Forbes led all scorers with 14 points on 6-for-10 shooting from the floor. MSU saw 10 different players score throughout the game, including 11 points off the bench from redshirt junior Eron Harris.
Senior guard Denzel Valentine finished the game with 13 points, 12 rebounds and four assists, but did not score a basket in the second half.
