Little higher than I expected, but reasonable. I think we put it all together this week and play 4 quarters. Under MD we have played our best game of the season to that point against UM 7 out of 7 years. This year will be no different.
 
I was thinking 13 or 14, ot shocking though. UM had some strange spreads for as bad as they were, they were big favorites vs mn, etc.

I think it helps that they were off, people haven't seen how bad they are for over a week.
 
I was guessing it would be around 11 or 12, I think the record for this series is UM -15 in 2000
 
Up to 17, this would have been a great two way bet, take MSU laying the 15 then take UM +18 or more late in the week. MSU wins by 16 or 17 and you win both bets.
 
I've watched Michigan play most of their games this year and I'll say that their front four are pretty good, it might take us a while to get the running game going. On the other side, their offensive line is abysmal, I don't think a week off is going to change much. Over under for sacks on DG or whoever replaces him if he gets knocked out is about 5.

In 2007 we beat nd and Pitt handily then blew a big lead and lost to michigan. 2008? And what about 2012 - our best game to that point was a 12-10 loss with some horrible red zone play calling?

You want a much bigger middle to make it worthwhile. You have about 5% chance of hitting a 1.5 or even 2 pt middle so your expected value on $100 bets is $.50.

I'd be shocked if you guys don't beat us by 4 touchdowns.

Michigan - 3
MSU - 42

We'll be lucky to get 20 yards on the ground and walk out of EL with less than 3 turnovers and 8 sacks.

I think it will be more like 35-10. You might spring a big play and your front 7 is decent.
 
I like the quote from Tawain Jones yesterday, he said that we need to make sure we're the more angry team. I don't think complacency is going to be a problem
 
those arrogant nerds at Northwestern... I mean Michigan... will not be able to stop themselves from calling MSU little brother. That should get MSU fired up for a good ass whooping.

MSU 35 UOM 0
 
For some reason I have a gut feeling we will win but won't cover

MSU 31
MICH 17

If I were betting I'd take MSU, I just think their offensive line is horrible and you need fluke plays to stay competitive when that's the case. they don't have a gallon who can break big plays like last year.

If they couldn't fix that O-line over a whole summer I don't think a bye week will make much of a difference

"It's Michigan fergodssake......we don't replace knocked out QB's. Give em a good round of applause and send em back in"!!
