February 24, 2026: MSU begins a tough road trip into the state of Indiana with its first stop on Thursday at Purdue. Mackey has been a house of horrors for the Spartans where they haven’t won for over 10 years. Admittedly, Purdue usually has had good teams when Michigan State has visited, however, the arena hasn’t been kind to MSU.

This year - specifically this month - neither team has played very well so it is sort of a matchup of struggling teams. Purdue has uncharacteristically dropped 3 games at home leading Spartan fans to have some hope. Unfortunately, the Spartans haven’t played well on the road either. It will certainly take their A game to pull off this upset and finding a way to contain Braden Smith if Michigan State wants to have a good night.

There’s only one place we recommend you go to get your MSU T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts — Nudge Printing (https://www.nudgeprinting.com) Nudge is owned and operated by Gabe and Brittany, two MSU alums.

If you have a home in Michigan you know the importance of clearing water efficiently away from your home off the roof. Unfortunately, the outdoor beauty of Michigan means you have to deal with leaves and debris that pile up in your gutters. Sometimes, those gutters also can’t keep up with the rain or leave puddles by your foundation.
