With Tom Izzo’s 354th conference victory finally secured, hopefully Michigan State can turn their full focus to a regular season Big Ten title. It will be a demanding final stretch, however, as MSU faces five ranked teams in their final six games, beginning Tuesday with Purdue in the Breslin Center (7 PM, streaming on Peacock - way to go, Big Ten).
The Spartans will enter the matchup in second place at 11-3 in the conference, a half game ahead of Purdue who is 11-4. Both teams trail 12-2 Michigan after the Wolverines escaped Columbus with an 86-83 victory over Ohio State yesterday.
