The clear favorite in this match up is Michigan. The wolverines are coming off of a solid win last week against Penn State under the lights, besting the nittany lions 16-13. There was added fuel to the fire when the block “M” located in the middle of campus was spray painted green by an undisclosed party. To add to the vandalism of the block “M”, the wolverines will be playing in East Lansing for a second year in a row. Michigan’s seniors cannot be happy for this decision, as they would have predicted to play in the big house for their senior year. All things considered, I think the wolverines will come into East Lansing with a chip on their shoulder and pull out a win against the heavily favored Spartans.

Well, actually the clear favorite picked to win here is Michigan State. They are favored by 17 points going into this weeks match-up. State has home field advantage for two years in a row against Michigan for the first time in series history. This game always sparks some tension between schools and fans but this year the beloved Sparty was painted with the Michigan “M” in yellow on his chest. This gives the Spartans even more of a reason to want to win. Just as most other predictions are going, I think Michigan State is going to bring home a nice and easy win this Saturday.
