After passing arguably their biggest test of the season with an 80-78 win over Illinois at home last weekend, Michigan State will face Rutgers in New York City on Saturday. The game tips off at 1:30 PM and will be televised nationally on CBS.
With the win over the Illini, MSU improved to 16-2 overall and stayed perfect in the conference at 7-0. The Spartans are on an 11 game win streak and remain the only undefeated team in Big Ten games.
To be in the best position to win the conference title, it may be crucial for the Spartans to continue that streak for at least another couple of games.
