Michigan State basketball now knows which teams they'll be facing on the road and at home next season.

On Tuesday, the Big Ten set down the locations of every single one of MSU's 20 conference games for the 2026-27 campaign. Since the Spartans will only play three teams twice in an 18-team conference, the types of opponents you get at home and on the road do have a legitimate impact on your hopes of a conference title. Dates and tip times for these games are still TBA.
