No. 2 Michigan State Spartans (24-5, 11-5 Big Ten) vs. Rutgers Scarlet Knights (6-23, 0-16)
When: 7 p.m.
Where: Louis Brown Athletic Center, Piscataway, N.J.
TV: Big Ten Network.
Radio: WJR-AM (760; other radio affiliates).
Game notes: On paper, this looks like a laugher. The No. 2 team in the nation, seemingly steamrolling to a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, visiting the only Big Ten team yet to win a conference game this season. Rutgers will have their best player back in the fold, freshman Corey Sanders, after a four-game suspension.
