Michigan State Reacts Survey Results
The results are in. There have been a few more names that have trickled in to MSU’s transfer portal class since we put this survey out last week, particularly on special teams. Even with the information available, TOC Nation has a generally positive opinion of Coach Pat Fitzgerald’s first free agency haul. Let’s talk specifics. […]
Instant Recap: Spartans Make Huskies Whimper with 80-63 Win
Less than 24 hours before tonight’s tipoff, we learned that Washington guard Desmond Claude wouldn’t be playing in this game, or any other, for the remainder of the Huskies’ season. Claude was limited by an ankle injury and missed some early games this season. He tried to return but never fully recovered and announced yesterday […]
Game Thread: Michigan State @ Washington
The West Coast swing begins this evening in Seattle as MSU looks to get their 4th win in a row. Game is at 6 PM ET and will air on BTN. Oh, and since this did not get as much fanfare as it has in previous years, I am going to throw in the results […]
Michigan State Spartans In The NFL Playoffs
Has your professional team’s season already ended? Or do you simply not have a team? Still going to watch the NFL Playoffs and need help figuring out which team to get behind? The Only Colors is here to help. We looked at the eight remaining teams and compiled a list of all Michigan State players […]
Spartan Hockey Dominates and Sweeps Wisconsin
In a must sweep weekend to keep the B1G title in sight, the Spartans showed up as the team we know they can be and swept number 2 ranked Wisconsin in Madison and in dominating fashion. While game 1 had a close final score, both games felt like they were MSU’s to lose. If this […]
Spartan Basketball Preview: The Washington Huskies
Tom Izzo and Michigan State Men’s Basketball will kick off a 2-game road trip to the Pacific Northwest this Saturday afternoon in Seattle for a matchup with the Huskies of the University of Washington. UW is off to a 10-7 start, along with a 2-4 Big Ten record so far, but don’t let the wins […]
The Week Ahead In MSU Sports
I just realized I never put this one out last week. Hope none of you missed any MSU action as a result. This coming week, we have another full schedule, beginning tonight with the second game of MSU’s hockey series at Wisconsin as we seek a sweep. But before I get into the sports slate, […]
CFP National Championship 2026: Michigan State fans predict Miami vs. Indiana
Hey TOC Nation, the college football season is down to this one last game. The Indiana Hoosiers and the Miami Hurricanes will meet Monday night at 7:30 PM ET. The game is being played at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, where the Canes play their home games, giving a potential home field advantage to the […]
MSU Hockey Game Thread/Preview: Wisconsin

Instant Recap: MSU Rallies to Defeat Indiana 81-60
This Monday, January 13th, marked the official end of the holidays for Michigan State students, as they returned to campus for the spring semester. Often times the end of the holidays and re-starting of school can bring about a brutal, sluggish start to the New Year, adjusting from the leisurely pace of winter break. The […]
Game Thread: Michigan State Vs. Indiana
Gonna be a Tuesday Night Tussle in East Lansing as a couple of the great programs in the history of college basketball take to the Breslin floor. Game is at 7 PM ET and will be on Peacock. Let me hear you!
Men’s Basketball Preview: Indiana Hoosiers
Michigan State will complete a three game homestand tomorrow with the first of two matchups this season against the Indiana Hoosiers. Indiana was the last team to defeat the Spartans in the regular season last year, and did so at the Breslin Center. The Spartans, of course, went on to a Big Ten regular season […]
Spartan Hockey Splits With Buckeyes
The weekend started out promising with a dominating victory on Friday but the Saturday close loss and upcoming schedule puts the Spartans in big hole to win the conference. State trails the conference leader by 8 points which isn’t an impossible task, but it definitely narrows the margin of error significantly. Friday’s game was a […]
Nickname Voting
We had some lower participation this year than in the past, so there are not as many options for us to vote on. As such, this voting process is going to be structured a little differently. In the comment section below, I will leave a comment for each player whose nickname is up for debate. […]
MSU Hockey Game Thread: Ohio State
Spartan hockey is back in action this weekend and on the road against the Ohio State Buckeyes. Ohio State comes in at 6-11-1 and 2-6-0 in B1G. Friday’s game is a 6:30pm start time and Saturday the puck drops at 5:00pm. Both games will be available to watch on B1G+. MSU starts their gauntlet B1G […]
Instant Recap: Spartans find some life in the second half, defeat Northwestern 76-66
After a convincing Monday win against USC, Michigan State returned to the Breslin Center to face the Northwestern Wildcats, a team that has been a bit of a thorn in the Spartans’ side over the last several years. The Spartans and Wildcats have split their last eight meetings and Northwestern has two wins in the […]
Michigan State Reacts Survey Results
Good evening everyone. I know we have a basketball game tonight, but I wanted to kick this out before the CFP Semifinals begin while our game is going on. We asked TOC Nation this week for your thoughts on the last four teams still playing football. More than 2/3 of us are hoping to see […]
Game Thread: Michigan State Vs. Northwestern
After a 29-point shellacking of USC, MSU looks to keep the good vibes going as Northwestern comes to town. Game is at 6:30 PM ET and will be on BTN. Let me hear you!
Basketball Preview: MSU Vs. Northwestern
On Monday night, the Michigan State Spartans took all their frustrations from a rough loss to Nebraska out on the visiting USC Trojans to the tune of a 29-point victory. On Thursday night, MSU will look to begin a new winning streak, and with no ranked opponents on the schedule until January 30, it seems […]
MSU Football: Coaching Staff Round-Up
It’s hard to believe that it has only been month since the 2025 season ended for Michigan State. Since the 38-28 victory over Maryland at Ford Field, MSU football has been an absolute whirlwind. Coach Pat Fitzgerald was announced as the next Spartan Head Coach on December 2nd, and since then he has been busy […]
Michigan State Reacts Survey
Hey TOC, we got a couple quick questions for you this week. With the college football season down to its last four teams, we want to know who you think will come out on top and also who you are cheering for. Oh, and one last reminder to get your nominations in for player nicknames. […]
Instant Recap: Spartans return to form, defeat USC 80-51
After a disappointing and turnover-filled performance Monday in Lincoln, NE, Michigan State returned home to face USC, just one of just four Big Ten teams (including the B1G tournament) to have defeated the Spartans last year. It was the Izzone Alumni Night at the Breslin Center and the Spartans took the floor with Divine Ugochukwu […]
Game Thread: Michigan State Vs. USC
It’s a must-win game for both teams tonight, as the Spartans and the Trojans are looking to avoid a 2-game losing streak to open up 2026. Which squad can bounce back and get the W in this latest battle from Greek Mythology? Game is at 8:30 PM ET and will be on FS1. Let me […]
