Michigan State basketball is heading out west during the holiday season for a massive non-conference game.
The Spartans announced on Monday that they’ll play Gonzaga in a neutral site game in Palm Springs, Calif on December 19. The notable non-conference game will be part of the Acrisure Series.
The game time for this matchup has not yet be announced.
Michigan State last played Gonzaga in 2022 when the Bulldogs edged them out for a one-point win in a neutral site game in San Diego, Calif. Both Michigan State and Gonzaga have been regulars in the NCAA Tournament for the last nearly 30 seasons and should both again be top tier teams this season.
With the announcement of this matchup against Gonzaga, we now know Michigan State is set to play at least three premiere non-conference matchups: Duke in the Champions Classic (in Chicago), Arkansas on Thanksgiving (in Detroit) and Gonzaga. There has also been a report that Michigan State will play at Tennessee this year, but that has not been officially announced yet by the school.
The Spartans also recently announced an exhibition game at Marquette for late October.
