Spartans Face UConn in First Exhibition | Michigan State Spartans Basketball News

Michigan State kicks off its season with a high-stakes exhibition against UConn on October 20th at the Breslin Center—marking their first game of the year and the second straight preseason showdown with the Huskies. After that, they face Marquette on the 25th before diving into the regular season. Last year’s tight 76-69 loss to UConn sets the stage for this rematch, while Coach Izzo’s heavy rotation in tune-ups—giving key prospects like Jeremy Fears Jr. and Coen Carr over 30 minutes last year—signals what’s ahead. This time, watch how Izzo manages his stars’ minutes amid NBA hype, plus how freshmen and injured returnee Kaleb Glenn integrate. Don’t miss it—just 47 days until the Spartans hit the court.
