How to watch and score prediction for Michigan State basketball's matchup against Indiana on Sunday
Michigan State basketball will look to complete a perfect week in the state of Indiana, with a tough test ahead on Sunday afternoon from Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Ind.
The Spartans will travel to Indiana for a highly-anticipated road matchup against the Hoosiers. Michigan State already picked up a win over the Hoosiers' in-state rivals Purdue earlier this week, and will now look to complete the Hoosiers state sweep on Sunday.
Michigan State comes into this matchup on a three-game winning streak to bounce back from their worst four-game stretch of the season. The Spartans picked up a massive road win over top 10 Purdue on Thursday, and carry a 23-5 overall record and 13-4 mark in Big Ten play into this tilt against the Hoosiers.
Indiana, on the other hand, is in need of a marquee win badly to boost their NCAA Tournament resume. The Hoosiers come into this game with an overall record of 17-11 and conference mark of 8-9, but have lost three straight games -- including a disappointing upset loss to Northwestern earlier this week.
Michigan State blew out Indiana in their lone matchup earlier this season, winning by 21 points at the Breslin Center. That game, however, was tight until about the final 10 minutes of the game when Michigan State went on a big run to pull away.

Indiana's backs are against the wall when it comes to making the NCAA Tournament, while Michigan State is coming off a marquee win earlier in the week. So this one stinks like a perfect up-down matchup. The Spartans have the better team but the Hoosiers will play with desperation that will be the difference in this tough road tilt.
