Michigan State Squeaks Past Penn State on the Road, 76-72
The Final Four Is Not On The Schedule - A Podcast Discussing Michigan State Basketball.About this episode
December 13, 2025: Michigan State played its first true home game today and snuck out of Happy Valley with a 76-72 win over Penn State. The game was a weird one in which MSU led by double digits in the first half but then gave it all back (and then some) managing to cut the Penn State lead to 3 by halftime, 36-33. The second half was another blistering start for the Spartans where they got out to a 10 point lead again but then gave up 11 straight. The blown leads were largely due to a rash of Spartan turnovers as they finished with 17 leading to 23 Penn State points. The one bright spot for Michigan State was the insertion of Divine Ugochukwu into the starting lineup where he scored 23 points on 8-10 shooting (5-5 from 3). How MSU handles the minute allocation and rotation with two point guards going forward will certainly be something to watch. Are you looking for collegiate apparel including Spartan gear?
