Tom Izzo promised changes during his midweek press conference after the Spartans got blitzed by 26-points at Iowa. Those changes came to fruition today in the Saturday matchup against Purdue, when the Spartans trotted out a new starting lineup.
Izzo is known for being stubborn when it comes to the starting lineup and keeping consistency with his lineups, so making these changes is a big deal.
Michigan State will be starting A.J. Hoggard, Max Christie, Gabe Brown, Malik Hall and Julius Marble.
MSU starting lineup:
