Season Opener vs. James Madison

November 3, 2023: A lot like Christmas morning, Monday is the official start to the college basketball season in what we hope will be a very special and fun year for MSU hoops. The Dukes from James Madison, however, won't be a pushover. They won their conference last year (but lost in the conference tourney) and are favored to again this year. JMU ranks in the top 150 on KenPom which puts them above Minnesota.

Featured player, Terrence Edwards will be the player to watch for on James Madison. Edwards is a projected first team conference player and at 6'7" he could give MSU some fits playing at the wing with that size and skill. This should be a great test and warmup for the Spartans as they prepare for their matchup a week later against Duke in the Champions Classic.
