Prairie View A&M vs Michigan State Prediction

I’m probably going to lean toward Michigan State but I’m not touching it. It’s a hefty line. The Spartans’ offense looked pretty good overall in the Maryland win but shot themselves in the proverbial foot several times along the way. Michigan State had 493 total yards in that one with 7.1 yards per play and 26 first downs but also had three picks. The 10 penalties (out of 19 total) and 11-of-17 on third downs allowed by the defense didn’t help either.

Still, Michigan State should be able to handle Prairie View without any difficulty. The Panthers posted a pretty gutsy road win versus an 0-2 Northwestern State team last weekend, however, they’ll likely get lost in the Spartan Stadium mayhem early here.
