Just three days after the season opener, Michigan State basketball is already playing its second game of the year, this time Niagara comes to town.

The Spartans took care of a tricky Monmouth opponent in the opener, 81-57, and they're hoping to do the same with an even larger spread. The Spartans are massive favorites on Thursday night and the Purple Eagles are 1-0 on the year with a 100-point performance in their opener. Can Michigan State shut that offense down and win by 29-plus, which is what Vegas is expecting?

Before we can get into the specifics of this game, there's a preview for that, we have to share the viewing info because, well, the Spartans have yet to be on TV and fans are getting restless.

Through the Spain trip, two preseason games, and now the season opener, Michigan State has either been live streamed on Instagram or on BTN+ but luckily Thursday night's game will be available for those who don't want to pay for a subscription.

Here's how to watch Niagara vs. Michigan State basketball:

Date: Thursday, Nov. 7
Time: 8 p.m. ET
Location: East Lansing, Mich.
Venue: Breslin Center
TV: BTN
Live Stream: FOX Sports Go

That's right, you'll be able to watch Thursday night's game on the Big Ten Network and it's streaming on the FOX Sports app. There are plenty of options and you could also listen on Spartan Sports Network or 760AM.

Michigan State will look to pick up where it left off against Monmouth and get the offense going like it's supposed to with a handful of shooters who failed to get hot on Monday.
