Advice and prediction
Michigan State’s win last week showed this team isn’t quitting on the year and has plenty of fight still in them. That effort, and the offense (or lack there of) Rutgers possess has me feeling good about the Spartans winning this game. The line seems spot on that it’ll be a comfortable double-digit win for Michigan State but not a big-time blowout.
Prediction: Michigan State 24, Rutgers 14
