Let the psychological warfare begin. After Tuesday’s announcement that Michigan State and Oakland will play at Little Caesars Arena on Dec. 16, joining Michigan and Detroit Mercy for a college basketball doubleheader, Oakland coach Greg Kampe praised the Spartans and longtime coach Tom Izzo. “They were (ranked) No. 1 two years ago, and we got beat in overtime,” Kampe said of his team’s 99-93 loss to MSU at the Palace. “I’m hoping they’re No. 1 again. That would be great.”
