Penn State at Michigan

The game of the week in the Big Ten. Too bad it won’t be at night.

Penn State shocked me last week when it beat Iowa.  I thought the Hawkeyes would handle them physically.

Can they pull off the upset this week? I doubt it.

Michigan’s defense ranks No. 1 against the pass and No. 6 in scoring.  That spells trouble for the Nittany Lions who are struggling to throw the ball.

Penn State’s defense is not good at stopping the run and that’s what Michigan does very well averaging 212.8 yards-per-game.

The only reason to think the Nittany Lions keep this game close is Trace McSorley.  He won’t be enough.

The Wolverines have been great at home and will roll to a blowout win.  Michigan 36-10.
