The countdown to the real thing begins now for Michigan State. The No. 1 team in the nation played its only official exhibition game at the Breslin Center on Tuesday night, dispatching Division III Albion, 85-50. Now, the focus turns to next week’s 1 vs. 2 matchup when the Spartans take on second-ranked Kentucky in the Champions Classic at Madison Square Garden in New York. It will be the third time Michigan State has been part of a 1-2 game in the event, but this is the first time it will be the top-ranked team.
