Michigan State basketball is readying for its second and final exhibition before the 2025-26 season officially begins. The 22nd-ranked Spartans are taking on No. 4 Connecticut in Storrs. This will also be UConn's second exhibition game, the first being a 71-52 victory over Boston College back on Oct. 13.

No. 22 Michigan State pulled away in the second half for an 80-69 win against Colgate in the season opener on Monday night at the Breslin Center with an effort the head coach was far from thrilled about. Here are notable quotes from Izzo and players following the game:

Jaxon Kohler scored 16 points and grabbed 15 rebounds and Jeremy Fears Jr. added 14 points and 10 assists Monday night to lead No. 22 Michigan State to an 80-69 victory over Colgate in the season-opener for both schools.
