One of the Spartans' top non-conference games now has a tip time finalized.

Michigan State men's basketball's marquee road non-conference game at Tennessee will be a late tip on a weeknight. The Spartans announced on Wednesday that their game against the Volunteers on November 17 will tipoff at 9 p.m. ET.

The game will be televised on ESPN2.

Michigan State basketball released tip times and TV designations for nearly all of their games earlier this week. But this matchup against the Volunteers was still listed as to be determined in that initial release. Now, the lone remaining still to be determined game time is their matchup against Gonzaga on December 19.
