Michigan State (-14) vs. Indiana

The Spartans rebounded nicely with a convincing win over Northwestern last week.

The Hoosiers also bounced back after getting pummeled by Ohio State two weeks ago.

I can’t get a solid read on which Michigan State offense will show up.  It appeared that it finally found its rhythm last week, but I also thought that after the win over Western Michigan.

It may not matter this week because I know Indiana’s offense will struggle to score against the Spartans’ defense which is allowing just 11 points-per-game.

This will be a low scoring game. Spartans’ offense will make a few extra plays in the fourth to pull out the win.

Michigan State 17-6.

Now for an intriguing game in the Big Ten West.
