Michigan–Michigan State basketball rivalry

TrophyNone

The Michigan–Michigan State basketball rivalry is a college basketball rivalry between Michigan Wolverines men's basketball and Michigan State Spartans men's basketball that is part of the larger intrastate rivalry between the University of Michigan and Michigan State University that exists across a broad spectrum of endeavors including their general athletic programs: Michigan Wolverines and Michigan State Spartans. In athletics the rivalry extends to a competition for recruits and resources. One result of the competition for recruits was the University of Michigan basketball scandal, which grew out of recruiting efforts for Mateen Cleaves. On the field, the athletic rivalry includes the Paul Bunyan Trophy and the Michigan–Michigan State ice hockey rivalry, but extends to almost all sports and many other forms of achievement. Both teams are members of the Big Ten Conference.

@-Michigan State home

Michigan currently leads the series, which began on January 9, 1909, 94–75 (87–75, adjusted for the University of Michigan basketball scandal). They have played one game that did not count as a conference game in 1998.[1] The teams are scheduled to play at least twice during the 2011–12 NCAA Division I men's basketball season.[needs update] The teams will meet at least twice during the 2011–12 Big Ten Conference men's basketball season.[2] The last time that these schools did not meet twice in a season was during the 2008–09 NCAA Division I men's basketball season.[1]

Despite the intense rivalry for basketball recruits and resources and the intensity of the rivalry in other sports, the rivalry has not been intense on the basketball court. The two teams have only played 8 times when both teams were ranked, and never have both teams been ranked top 10. Of the eight conference opponents that have been members of the Big Ten Conference since 1950 when Michigan State joined, it has only played fewer meaningful games against Wisconsin, Northwestern and Ohio State.[1]
