How to watch MSU basketball's exhibition game vs. Incarnate Word on Friday

Michigan State basketball has revealed how fans can watch their first exhibition game of the season, which is slated for later this week.

The Spartans will play their first official game of the season on Friday, with an exhibition opener against Incarnate Word from the Breslin Center in East Lansing, Mich. The game is part of the annual Izzone Campout event, with only season ticket holders and students able to attend the game in person.

So for the rest of us that will not be in attendance, we now know how we can watch the action from our home: on the Big Ten Plus app. The Big Ten streaming service will be broadcasting the game, with tipoff scheduled for 7 p.m. ET on Friday.

This marks the first of three exhibition games for Michigan State this season. They’ll also play UConn and Marquette in October, before opening the regular season on November 6 against Quinnipiac.
