Saturday night’s Michigan State vs Southern Utah game doesn’t exactly scream must-see TV, but here’s how to watch online.

It’s been a strong season for Michigan State thus far with a No. 1 ranking on the horizon if it can take care of a visiting Southern Utah team on Saturday night. The Thunderbirds come to East Lansing hungry for an upset and the Spartans are aiming for the top spot in the rankings.

With both Duke and Kansas losing in Week 5, the Spartans just need to beat Southern Utah and they will presumably be the No. 1 team in college basketball come Monday afternoon as the new rankings as released.

Nick Ward will need to shake off the frustrations he’s built up over the past few games over playing time and it boiled over on Tuesday night when he was benched by Tom Izzo in the second half. He will likely get a good opportunity to prove himself worthy of 20-25 minutes per game with a strong showing against Southern Utah.

Miles Bridges, too, will need a second straight strong performance as he went off for 20 against Rutgers on Tuesday. Expect him to be more aggressive at the rack against the Thunderbirds.
