Matchup analysis, game prediction for MSU-Michigan from LSJ’s Graham Couch

See how LSJ’s Graham Couch envisions Michigan State’s game against Michigan playing out on Saturday

Michigan State basketball will return to the floor on Saturday night in what should be a very interesting and odd game.

The Spartans have been off all week after their game originally scheduled for Wednesday against Minnesota was postponed due to an on-campus shooting that left three students dead. Michigan State last played on Sunday — which was a victory over Ohio State.

Michigan enters this game looking to bounce back from a pair of narrow defeats that have left the Wolverines firmly on the wrong side of the NCAA Tournament bubble. However, in this rivalry series, Michigan has won four of the five previous meetings with the Spartans in Ann Arbor.
