2. Best shooting night of the season

Michigan State will have a bounce-back game against this rival. A few days after having their worst shooting performance of the season they will follow that up by having their best shooting performance of the season.

Michigan State will shoot above 50 percent from the floor in this game. This will make it the seventh time this season that they will shoot at least 50 percent.

The Spartans will also have a season-high in 3-pointers made along with a season-high in 3-point percentage. The Spartans will make 13 shots from deep on 19 attempts. This will make the percentage nearly 70 percent.

They have a revenge game for themselves for their shooting against Illinois last time out and they will look to do it against this Wolverine team that will not know what hit them when they roll into the Breslin Center.
