Michigan State Basketball: 5 bold predictions for Week 16 Rutgers battle

You might be thinking that a home matchup against Rutgers would be a cakewalk, but now that Michigan State is without Nick Ward and Josh Langford, Wednesday’s game could be closer than expected.

The Scarlet Knights provide the Spartans their final test before Sunday’s final exam against the Michigan Wolverines in Ann Arbor and if Michigan State can pass on Wednesday, it would have to make Tom Izzo and the entire fan base breathe a sigh of relief.

What can we expect from Wednesday’s late-February Big Ten battle against Rutgers?
