Waited as long as I could to get this in hoping the line would fall to a touchdown. Alas, it did not. I just do not believe Michigan has the horses on offense to hang on with Penn State in Happy Valley for four quarters. Even if the Wolverines manage to limit Saquon Barkley, the Nittany Lions have too much firepower. PSU should take a small lead into the half and extend it in the latter 30 minutes.
I thought his game would be -13. However, we get to lay less than 10 points giving us great value with a Penn State team outscoring opponents by 30 points per game.Last year, Michigan embarrassed Penn State, something the Nittany Lions have not forgotten.
Penn State rolls at home. The Lions average 46 points at home and have covered all four home games. They also have a major score to settle with Michigan, which embarrassed them 49-10 at Michigan last season. The Wolverines will try to keep up, but I see this being a runaway.
Last year, an inexperienced Penn State club was humbled by Michigan in a 49-10 loss. The Nittany Lions saw addressed their shortcomings, and have gone 15-1 since, the lone blemish a tight Rose Bowl loss to USC. The roles are reversed Saturday, with Penn State in position for a potential playoff berth with two Heisman candidates, while Michigan vies to remain a Big 10 contender despite massive roster turnover. The Lions are explosive on offense and solid defensively, and I can't see the Wolverines hanging tight for four quarters.
