By Brent Yarina, BTN.com Senior Editor, 3 years ago

Michigan State basketball is going with a special throwback uniform for Saturday night’s huge tussle with rival Michigan at the Breslin Center.

The team hasn’t worn the uniform since the 2003-04 season, according to this mlive.com article. This is a classic and excellent look; in fact, it’s one Nike and the Spartans should thinking about bringing back in a more modern design. The Spartans (7-0) host intrastate rival Michigan (6-0) at 7 p.m. ET Saturday. Need more reason to
