Michigan State and Purdue meet in the biggest Big Ten game of the year tomorrow night. MSU is an early 3 point favorite by Bookmaker. Here in East Lansing, we are expecting the biggest snowstorm of the year, beginning 8 am. We should have 5 inches of snow by tipoff, and a foot by Wednesday morning...

The two teams have leapfrogged over each other in the men's hoops polls so far this year, and this week was no different. The Spartans dropped road games at Wisconsin and at Illinois, and drop to #10. Purdue won a tight game at Indiana, and rose to #6.

Wisky is #11 and Ohio State is #13 in this week's Big Ten top-heavy AP Poll.
