Michigan State will take on Western Michigan to open the 2022 season at 7 p.m. on Friday night. The game was set to be played on ESPN. While the network is still the same, the channel the game will be played on has shifted.
ESPN will now be airing Serena Willaims’s U.S. Open match and it has moved the Spartans and Broncos to ESPN2 to make room.
The game time remains the same.
Michigan State's game vs. Western Michigan tomorrow night has been moved to ESPN2 so ESPN can air Serena Williams at the U.S. Open.
