Michigan State opened last season unranked before winning the Big Ten regular-season title and reaching the Elite Eight while finishing 30-7 in coach Tom Izzo’s 30th season. The Spartans will look a lot different next season after losing seven scholarship players.

The Spartans will play their only meetings of the 2025-26 season at Purdue, Wisconsin and Nebraska, the conference revealed Tuesday. They also will return to the Pacific Northwest to face Oregon and Washington for the first time on the road in conference action after the two newcomers visited East Lansing this winter.

After an exit in the Elite Eight, Michigan State is looking to the future, and Spartan Wire has dropped some predictions for 2025-26.
