Kickoff and broadcast details

Michigan State hosts Washington at 5:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, Nov. 14. The kickoff time was adjusted from 4:15 p.m. ET.

Spartans seek another step

Michigan State’s victory at Michigan snapped an overall six-game losing streak and ended a run of four straight losses to the Wolverines. The Spartans are hoping the performance can mark an early turning point under Pat Fitzgerald.

Washington enters at 5-4 overall and 2-4 in Big Ten play. The game is the first test of whether Michigan State can carry its momentum into the next week.

Washington’s uneven season

Washington opened the season ranked 17th in the preseason AP Poll, then fell out of the Top 25 by Week 3 after narrow wins over Washington State and Utah State. The Huskies have not returned to the rankings.

The team has been stronger away from home, going 2-1 on the road in 2026 with wins at Purdue and Nebraska. Its road loss came by one score at current No. 18 USC, while Washington is 0-3 at home in conference play.

Passing strength, scoring questions

Washington head coach Jedd Fisch calls the offense, which aims to make plays through the air. Quarterback Demond Williams Jr. has passed for 1,667 yards and 13 total touchdowns, with four interceptions, and is also a running threat. He is considered probable despite dealing with an injury.

Washington has averaged 99.3 rushing yards per game, ranking 131st in the FBS. Red-zone execution could be important: Michigan State needs to convert more field goals into touchdowns, while the article describes Washington’s offense as better than MSU’s.
