Michigan State basketball will go for the season sweep of Maryland on Saturday evening.
The Spartans knocked off Maryland on the road just a few weeks ago and will look to earn a second win over the Terps on Saturday evening. Tip-off is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. ET.
Michigan State comes into this game off a convincing win over rival Michigan on Tuesday. The Spartans are 13-8 overall and 5-5 in Big Ten play this year.
Maryland enters this game after having the week off, with a blowout victory over Nebraska in their last game last Saturday. Maryland is also 13-8 overall and 5-5 in Big Ten play this year.

Game Prediction
Prediction: MSU 73, Maryland 64
It’s not easy to beat a team twice in the same season, but it’s been even harder for teams in the Big Ten to win on the road this year. Michigan State has been especially tough to beat at home and I expect that to be the case again in this one. Expect the Spartans to play stifling defense again and hit some more shots down the stretch than in the first meeting to earn the win over Maryland.
