So, get this – Michigan State basketball is taking on Alcorn State in a nonconference game, and it’s going down at 6 p.m. ET at the Breslin Center in East Lansing. You can catch the action on the Big Ten Network or stream it on the FoxSports app or Fubo (free trial). If you’re more of a radio person, tune in to WJR-AM (760) for the Spartans radio affiliates.
Now, let’s talk about the Spartans’ recent game against Butler. After a couple of tough losses and a lacklustre performance, they really needed a win to turn things around. And guess what? They got it! The 74-54 victory over Butler showed some real improvement, especially in their 3-point shooting. They went 7-for-20, which isn’t mind-blowing, but it’s definitely better than before. Plus, they were making those shots when it counted the most, and their defence was on point. It’s safe to say that the Spartans are back on track.
There were some key changes in the lineup too, with sophomore Carson Cooper stepping up at the center spot. He may not have scored big, but his 11 rebounds and physical presence made a real difference. Looks like he’s here to stay in the starting lineup.
As for their upcoming game against Alcorn State, it’s expected to be a walk in the park compared to their previous matchups. Alcorn State is 1-3, so the Spartans have a good chance to fine-tune their game before facing off against Arizona on Thanksgiving Day. And we all know Arizona is no pushover, especially after their wins against Duke and their top 5 ranking.
So, mark your calendars for Sunday, Nov. 19, and get ready to cheer on the Spartans as they take on Alcorn State. It’s going to be an exciting game, and you won’t want to miss it!
