In desperate need of a win, Michigan State will be taking on a Penn State team which is coming off an overtime victory against Nebraska. The Spartans narrowly missed out on a double-bye in the Big Ten Tournament, but this might be the best-case scenario to earn a win in postseason play.

Miles Bridges, Nick Ward, Cassius Winston and Josh Langford will be huge pieces to the puzzle moving forward and this team seems to go as they all do. Can the Spartans find a way to hop off the bubble and into March Madness?
