This is a matchup of a pair of teams heading in opposite directions right now. Northwestern has lost four straight games coming into this game while Michigan State has nine straight wins on the books. The Wildcats have already lost to Michigan State at home less than two weeks ago and it’s going to be tough on their home court. The Spartans are unbeaten at the Breslin Center and I expect a blowout win for Michigan St here in this early tipoff.
