Michigan State is hosting Butler in the last year of the Gavitt Games. The Gavitt games feature Big East teams against Big Ten teams for a week of high profile early season games.
This year’s challenge for the Spartans features some familiar faces: former Ohio State head coach Thad Matta and former Spartan Pierre Brooks.
WHile Butler isn’t expected to do very well in the Big East this year, this is still an important early showdown for a Michigan State team still trying to figure itself out.
Game Time: Friday, November 17th at 6:30pm (US East Coast Time)
