The Michigan State Spartans (18-8, 9-6) return to the road to take on the Iowa Hawkeyes (18-8, 8-7) in Iowa City for the lone regular season matchup between the programs. Michigan State is riding a two-game losing streak entering the matchup while Iowa is coming off a road upset at Ohio State.
Yet again, Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo has the opportunity with a win tonight to tie former Indiana Hoosiers head coach Bobby Knight for most wins at the helm of a Big Ten program. Izzo currently holds 661 wins to Knight’s 662. Knight still holds a substantial lead in Big Ten league wins over Izzo, 353-320.
