The 2023 Big Ten Super Saturday event, to be held at the legendary Madison Square Garden in New York City. On Saturday, Feb. 4, Rutgers will take on Michigan State in men’s basketball at “The World’s Most Famous Arena.” The Scarlet Knights will serve as the home team and the game will tip-off at noon ET on FOX.
Rutgers will make its second trip to Madison Square Garden since the Big Ten Tournament was played there in 2018, and first since facing Michigan in the 2020 Big Ten Super Saturday contest.
Michigan State has made two appearances in Manhattan since the 2018 conference tournament, facing No. 3 Kansas last season and No. 2 Kentucky in 2019, both in the State Farm Champions Classic.
While the Spartans have won 10 of the teams’ 12 meetings in Big Ten Conference play, Rutgers has won two of the last three and will be looking for its first back-to-back victories over Michigan State when the teams meet on Feb. 4.
In last year’s only meeting, Rutgers’ Ron Harper Jr. and Clifford Omoruyi scored 17 points each to lead six Scarlet Knights in double-figures, as Rutgers scored a home win over the Spartans. Gabe Brown led Michigan State with 20 points.
Tickets for the general public will go on sale on Tuesday, Nov. 22 at Noon ET, and can be purchased through Ticketmaster at www.ticketmaster.com or by calling (866) 858-0008.
