Michigan State basketball returns to the court on Saturday afternoon as a sizable favorite over Bowling Green.
The Spartans will look to bounce back from a loss against No. 1 Kansas earlier this week in a home non-conference matchup against the Falcons. Michigan State comes into this home tilt as a massive favorite over Bowling Green.
Michigan State is 2-1 overall on the year, with a pair of blowout home wins in matchups against midmajor competition. Bowling Green is 1-2 overall with its lone win coming against NAIA foe Taylor University earlier this week.

Michigan State vs. Bowling Green prediction, pick
Michigan State basketball is coming off a hard-fought loss against Kansas earlier this week, and I anticipate a little bit of sluggishness out of that game. Ultimately, the Spartans will stiffen up defensively in the second half and pull away for the double-digit victory.
Prediction: Michigan State 79, Bowling Green 62
