Dec. 16: vs. Wisconsin-Green Bay

The Spartans come into this game angry after losing to Florida. Michigan State holds Green Bay to under 50 points in a 25-point victory.

Prediction: Victory for MSU (9-2)

Dec. 21: vs. Oakland

Tom Izzo’s friend Greg Kampe has possibly his least talented team that he has had in a while. Oakland seems to play Michigan State tough in recent years but not this time as the Spartans score over 90 points and freshman Marcus Bingham Jr. has his coming out party with a double-double.

Prediction: Victory for MSU (10-2)

Dec. 29: vs. Northern Illinois

Tom Izzo welcomes back another friend and former assistant in Mark Montgomery. The Spartans, who finish out the 2018 portion of their schedule, win big here and look for a surprise performance from Kyle Ahrens in this one as Michigan State wins by 30.

Prediction: Victory for MSU (11-2)
