Michigan vs. Michigan State: NCAA Men’s Basketball Matchup on 3/9/25

In a classic showdown to close out the regular season, the Michigan Wolverines will travel to East Lansing to take on the Michigan State Spartans on Sunday afternoon. These two historic rivals have a long-standing rivalry on the basketball court, with Michigan State coming out on top in recent matchups. The Spartans have won the last three games against the Wolverines, including a strong victory last month with a score of 75-62.

Michigan has been working hard to keep pace with Michigan State in the race for the Big Ten regular season title. After a tough loss to the Maryland Terrapins earlier in the week, the Spartans secured a share of the regular season championship for the first time since the 2019-20 season.

Led by a six-game win streak, Michigan State has been on a roll, recently defeating the Iowa Hawkeyes. Michigan needs to be on their toes in this upcoming matchup to avoid losing ground in the standings and potentially dropping to a lower seed for the conference tournament.

The Spartans have had the Wolverines’ number when playing at the Breslin Center, winning the last six meetings at home and remaining undefeated against their rivals since January 2018.
