Michigan St. Spartans
The Michigan State Spartans secured their 11th straight win with an 80-78 victory over Illinois, improving to 7-0 in the Big Ten. Led by Tre Holloman's 17 points, the Spartans relied on free throws to clinch the hard-fought win. Despite being outrebounded and outscored in the paint, Michigan State's strong defensive performance helped seal the victory. With a power ranking of 88, the Spartans rank highly in offensive efficiency and free throw shooting but struggle with their three-point shooting. Currently ranked 8th in the nation, Michigan State will seek to extend their winning streak when they face off against New Jersey. Key player Nick Sanders is questionable due to injury.
