Georgetown's next game was a non-conference affair against seventh-ranked Michigan State – its second Top-Ten opponent of the year – at Madison Square Garden in New York City on February 1, 2014; preceded by a game between Marquette and St. John's, it was the second game of the "Super Saturday Hoops" doubleheader celebrating the following day's Super Bowl XLVIII at MetLife Stadium in nearby East Rutherford, New Jersey. The two teams had met only once previously, when the Spartans knocked the Hoyas out of the 1986 NCAA Tournament in its second round. Michigan State came into the game with a record of 19–2 and was a heavy favorite despite playing with a front court weakened by injuries to senior center Adreian Payne and junior guard Branden Dawson. Trailing 30-29 at halftime, the Hoyas began the second half with an 11-2 run to take a 40-32 lead with 14:26 remaining in the game. Sophomore guard Gary Harris scored a game-high 20 points for the Spartans, and his three-pointer with 1:32 left reduced Georgetown's lead to 56-54. Jabril Trawick then made two key plays, tipping in a missed shot to give Georgetown a 58-54 lead and soon afterwards scoring on a breakaway dunk to give the Hoyas a 63-55 advantage. The Hoyas, who shot only 2-for-12 (16.7 percent) from three-point range but 22-for-49 (44.9 percent) from the field overall, held the Spartans to 39.3 percent shooting from the field, and became only the fourth team to outrebound Michigan State during the season, 37-30. Markel Starks led Georgetown with 16 points, D'Vautes Smith-Rivera scored 12, Trawick had eight, and the Georgetown front court had a strong game with Lubick scoring eight points as Georgetown broke its losing streak with a shocking 64-60 upset of Michigan State and defeated a ranked opponent for the second time during the season.
