Michigan State, which released its full non-conference schedule last week, plays the first regular season game at home against Monmouth on Nov. 4. After a trip to the Maui Invitational later that month is a two-game dip into the Big Ten that finally has known opponents.

Among other notable matchups, the Michigan men will play reigning Big Ten regular-season champion Purdue, which returns three starters from last year’s national runner-up team, at Mackey Arena on Friday, Jan. 24 and at Crisler Center on Tuesday, Feb. 11. The Michigan State men will face Purdue once — at home on Tuesday, Feb. 18.

Michigan basketball is set to embark upon a new era with Dusty May at the helm and a bevy of transfers with hopes that it can win right away. And in a new-look Big Ten, that also means some new teams on the schedule.
