December 6, 2025: Michigan State dropped it’s first game of the season to top ranked Duke 66-60 in front of an electric crowd at the Breslin Center. As expected, it was a defensive showcase and the top 10 defenses limited the other in their shooting. In the end, Duke made just a few more plays and shots and forced the action enough in the second half to get to the free throw line which was the difference in the final score.

Despite the loss, MSU finishes the difficult part of the first half of their season 8-1 with wins over Kentucky, Arkansas, and North Carolina and a 1-0 start to the Big Ten season. Carson Cooper’s individual performance was impressive as he finished with 15 points and a career high16 rebounds while guarding Duke’s best player, Cameron Boozer. Meanwhile, despite his shooting woes, Jeremy Fears logged 13 assists to just 1 turnover to lead the Spartans.

December 5, 2025: A lot of movement in the seed list since we last had a show. The new number one overall seed is Michigan who joins Duke, Arizona, and Purdue on the one line. Two seeds are Michigan State, Iowa State, Vanderbilt, and UConn. BYU, Alabama, Houston, and Gonzaga are the 3s with Kansas, UNC, Louisville, and Tennessee rounding things out at the 4.

The conference rankings are just about set. Dom has the Big Ten leading the way over the Big 12, SEC, ACC, and then Big East. However, if one just used NET rankings the SEC might be the most consistently deep leagues just without any teams at the top.

December 4, 2025: One of the most anticipated home games of the season for Michigan State is finally here - Duke. And the game is turning out to be even bigger than most expected as both teams enter the game undefeated and ranked in the top ten. Duke arrives with national player of the year front runner, Cameron Boozer, who has been tearing teams apart in just about every aspect of the game.

Of course, Michigan State is not slouch either as they will see if their elite offensive rebounding and home court advantage is enough to topple the Blue Devils. Duke is 2-0 in the Breslin in Tom Izzo’s tenure and he is certainly looking to turn that around if possible.

December 2, 2025: Michigan State opened up Big Ten play in East Lansing against the Iowa Hawkeyes and their new head coach, Ben McCollum and won 71-52 The win moves MSU to 8-0 overall and 1-0 in conference play in the young season. It was a game that MSU controlled from about the 6 minute mark after completing a 13-0 run to knock the Hawkeyes out of the game.

Probably the biggest key to the Spartans’ success in the game was the performance of Jeremy Fears, Jr. in running the offense and defending Iowa point guard, Bennett Stirtz. Stirtz looked rattled in the first half missing all but one of this field goal attempts and only 1 of 4 from the free throw line. Additionally, Michigan State crushed the Hawkeyes on the boards pulling down 56% of their misses and had a 21-6 edge in second chance points.

So now the Spartans await the arrival of Duke on Saturday in what will be the last high major team they will face (aside from Penn State on the road) before the calendar changes.

November 30, 2025: Michigan State returns home after a successful Florida trip with wins over East and North Carolina. But now Big Ten play begins with a matchup over a tricky undefeated Iowa team in East Lansing. It will be the first trip to the Breslin for new head coach Ben McCollum and almost the entire team except for transfer Brendan Hausen.

The question for the Spartans is whether they can maintain their connectedness on defense and offense against a stingy Iowa team that is going to play very slowly. Can Iowa’s senior point guard, Bennett Stirtz, keep his poise and remain a dominant presence or will Jeremy Fears, Jr. impose his will on the Hawkeyes?

November 27, 2025: This Thanksgiving, Michigan State moved to 7-0 on the season with a big win over North Carolina in Fort Meyers. The 74-58 win now moves the Spartans undefeated as they begin the Big Ten season on Tuesday at home against Iowa.

The game was a combination of the Spartans holding down the powerful North Carolina front court and finding ways to effectively score. It was a game where Jeremy Fears really controlled the floor on both ends in the second half and was able to get going offensively. Michigan State really seems to be rounding into form and very early in the season.

November 26, 2025: On Thanksgiving, Michigan State will face another storied program, North Carolina, in the Fort Meyers Tipoff Classic. Like the Spartans, the Tar Heels are 6-0 and looking to stack up non-conference wins before heading into league play in a few weeks.

Unlike last year’s North Carolina team that lacked size, this year’s team boasts a ton of it. They have a 7 footer and two 6’ 10” starters including Caleb Wilson who is legit candidate for freshman of the year. MSU will have its hands full trying to contain the freshman sensation and the Tar Heels’ interior play.

November 25, 2025: Michigan State played the East Carolina Pirates in the tipoff for the Fort Meyers Classic and won 89-56. It was an impressive performance from the Spartans who led wire to wire and carried a very good first half into and through the entire second. We never saw MSU let up and extended their 23 point half time lead to over 40 before the walk-ons made it in the game.

Aside from the suffocating defense, the Spartans exhibited another game over 40% from 3 point range and are now averaging over 32% from 3 which puts them solidly in the middle of the pack nationally in shooting. Now MSU will take on the Tar Heels on Thanksgiving Day which will obviously be much stiffer competition.
