There’s little doubt the Wolverines would like a heavy dose of revenge against a Spartans club that has dominated their rivalry in recent seasons. Last year, Michigan State’s walk-off victory on the final play cost Michigan a potential shot at the playoffs in coach Jim Harbaugh's first season. It’s unlikely Harbaugh will let up if the Wolverines are up big Saturday, but this is still way too many points. Downtrodden Michigan State has lost five straight and literally has nothing else to play for this season, and I’m betting coach Mark Dantonio has his team motivated against its arch rival.
Michigan State has been an absolute disaster and now a still angry Michigan team after last season's improbable loss to the Spartans is going to feast on their misery. The Michigan State defense hasn't shown they can stop anyone, which isn't Spartans football. I like Michigan to have a good time beating them and running the score up. The Spartans have gone Over in five of seven this season and nine of their last 11 against Big Ten teams. Look for the Wolverines to possibly take care of the total themselves.
We all saw what happened last year in Ann Arbor with the botched punt at the end of the game. That was a much better Michigan State team on the field then, and this Michigan team is a national title contender. The Wolverines have had this one pegged for a while. Lay the points.
