Michigan State basketball will open up conference play this upcoming week, so it’s only fitting we get an updated batch of power rankings from David Klein of Spartans Illustrated.
Klein released his “FINAL Pre-Szn B1G (Basketball) Rankings” on Sunday, and he has the Spartans near the top of the league. Klein broke up the power rankings into tiers and has the Spartans at the top of the second tier (Conference Contenders). Overall, Michigan State is listed at No. 5 of 18 teams in Klein’s rankings.
Michigan State is currently 6-2 overall and coming off a strong showing in the Maui Invitational. The Spartans finished in third place in the loaded event, which included a marquee win over North Carolina in the finale.
Michigan State basketball opens conference play with a road game at Minnesota on Wednesday. From there, the Spartans will host Nebraska on Saturday.
