Michigan State basketball will look to pick up a monster victory on the road on Sunday evening.
The Spartans travel to Northwestern on Sunday, with the game scheduled to tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET. Michigan State enters this matchup on a five-game winning streak and looking to get back to .500 in conference play. The Spartans are 9-5 overall and 1-2 in Big Ten play this year.
Northwestern is looking to pick up a bounce-back win after losing to rival Illinois by 30 points earlier this week. The Wildcats are 10-3 overall and 1-1 in Big Ten play this year.
Can Michigan State continue its winning ways with a big-time road victory over Northwestern? Check out my prediction and all of the key game details for this matchup between the Spartans and Wildcats below:

Prediction: MSU 71, Northwestern 76
Michigan State is the better team and playing with more consistency right now than the Wildcats. But Northwestern still has the Spartans’ kryptonite on its roster — Boo Buie. This man always finds a way to go off against the Spartans in his career and I have no faith that won’t be the case again on Sunday.
