KEY GAME INFORMATION
MICHIGAN ST: Last season: 30-5, won Big Ten title and lost in second round of NCAA Tournament.
Nickname: Spartans.
Coach: Tom Izzo.
Conference: Big Ten.
Who's gone: Miles Bridges (NBA), Jaren Jackson (NBA), Tum Tum Nairn, Gavin Schilling, Ben Carter.
Who's back: Nick Ward entered his name in the NBA draft before deciding to stay in school for his junior season. The 6-foot-9, 245-pound forward ranked third on the team last season with 12.4 points and first with 7.1 rebounds. Junior point guard Cassius Winston trailed only Bridges in scoring, averaging 12.6 points a game, made a Big Ten-best 49.7 percent of his 3-point shots and had a team-high 6.9 assists per game. Junior shooting guard Joshua Langford averaged 11.7 points and showed the potential to do more, including his 23-point performance against North Carolina.
Who's new: Hall of Fame coach Tom Izzo said at least two freshmen will play right away: Aaron Henry, a 6-6, 210-pound forward, and Foster Loyer, a 6-foot point guard.
The Skinny: The Spartans are No. 10 in the preseason poll because they have a lot of experience, which they hope will help the program advance past the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2015 when Izzo reached his seventh Final Four.
Expectations: Las Vegas oddsmakers have Michigan State as a 35-1 shot win the NCAA Tournament, odds that are tied with rival Michigan and trail 11 schools.
IOWA: Last season: 14-19
Nickname: Hawkeyes
Coach: Fran McCaffery
Conference: Big Ten
Who's gone: Forward Ahmad Wagner, guard Brady Ellingson.
Who's back: Forward Tyler Cook, who led the team in scoring (15.3 points per game), rebounding (6.8) and field goal percentage (.566), returned for his junior season after flirting with the pros. Fellow junior Jordan Bohannon averaged 13.5 points and 5.4 assists per game while shooting 43 percent on 3s a year ago. Six-foot-11 center Luke Garza (12.1 points, 6.4 rebounds a game) could take a big step forward as a sophomore, but he was slowed by a cyst on his spleen in the offseason and may not be ready for the opener.
Who's new: Freshman Joe Wieskamp, the two-time Gatorade Player of the Year in Iowa, is a scoring wing who will likely start immediately for a team seeking an infusion of elite-level talent.
The Skinny: The Hawkeyes were arguably the worst defensive Power Five team in America a year ago. They have their top nine scorers back this season, but if those guys don't learn how to get stops it won't matter much.
Expectations: Iowa is a 250-to-1 longshot to win the national title. The Hawkeyes would probably settle for 20 wins and a trip to the NCAA Tournament.
PREVIEW
No. 19 Iowa seeks redemption vs. No. 6 Michigan State
 

It hasn't really been a century since Michigan State and Iowa last played. It just feels like that in some ways.

"That was, I think, 100 years ago," Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said. "Maybe it was a few years less, but it sure seems like that."

Back on Dec. 3, Michigan State throttled Iowa, 90-68, in East Lansing. It was the second straight loss for the Hawkeyes, who were in the midst of putting together an unbeaten nonconference run when the Big Ten got its early start.

It had some wondering how good Iowa really was, a notion furthered by a one-sided loss to Purdue when conference play resumed in early January. Since then, however, the Hawkeyes are rolling, winners of five straight.

No. 19 Iowa (16-3, 5-3) gets its shot at redemption on Thursday night when facing No. 6 Michigan State (17-2, 8-0 Big Ten) at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.

"It's big. We've turned things around," sophomore center Luka Garza told the Des Moines Register. "We struggled early (in the Big Ten), making some crucial mistakes. Now, we're doing a way better job executing and playing way better overall basketball."

That sort of basketball has vaulted Iowa smack in the middle of the conference race. While the schedule has yet to include any of the frontrunners, the Hawkeyes have recorded impressive wins over Nebraska and Ohio State.

What they face now is a challenge they experienced once before this season, which isn't any less daunting just because Iowa will be playing on its home court.

"We know who's coming in on Thursday," redshirt freshman guard Connor McCaffery said.

Who's coming is a Spartans team that sits atop the Big Ten standings, has won 12 consecutive games and is only team without a loss in the conference.

Even after Monday's 69-55 victory over No. 13 Maryland, Izzo was looking for more from his team as they continue to play without guard Joshua Langford (ankle). The Spartans got back guard Kyle Ahrens after he missed two games with a back injury. Ahrens scored two points in 12 minutes.

"I'm not big on silver linings, like win a game without your starters playing good, or look what you're doing without Josh and Kyle," Izzo said.

"It didn't make me sleep any better. We did some great things, but in the second half (against Maryland) we didn't play very good. We need to stay focused on what we have to do on a continuous basis, and that's just the way it is.

"This is a different Iowa team. They were one of my picks as a sleeper team. They got everybody back. They've got guards, they've got bigs, they've got athletes. I'm just looking forward to the opportunity to try to see if we continue to grow.

"When you win games on the road or play games on the road in tough environments you kind of learn a lot about a team."

The Spartans hope to learn they have what it takes to remain in sole possession of first place. The Hawkeyes are out to prove they can put some heat on the leaders.

"This is the part of the season where it's decided ... are they good or are they great?" Iowa guard Jordan Bohannon told the Register. "We want to be great this year. We don't want to fold like we did last year."
