Michigan State at Washington injury report:
Both Michigan State and Washington are dealing with injuries after a pair of games this year.
As Spartans’ fans know by now, Michigan State will be without starting linebacker Darius Snow for the remainder of the season and starting safety Xavier Henderson is out indefinitely with a leg injury. Michigan State star wide receiver Jayden Reed also was banged up in last week’s win over Akron but it is unclear at this time the severity of his injury and if he’ll be missing any time.
Washington also will be without at least two defenders this week with linebacker Edefuan Ulofoshio and safety Vincent Nunley out for multiple weeks. There are a handful of other Huskies battling day-to-day injuries at the moment as well.
Advice and prediction
This game is a true toss-up with a lot of unknown for both teams after a pair of tuneup games. While Michigan State is the better team on paper, Big Ten teams have historically struggled in cross-country early season games like this so it’s understandable how Washington is listed as the slight favorite. Whoever gets better quarterback play this week will pick up the win and I’m leaning on Spartans signal caller Payton Thorne to outperform Huskies’ Michael Penix Jr.
Prediction: Michigan State – 27, Washington – 24
