Join me and together we KILL THE BOOKS, and BURN THEM TO THE GROUND. Saturday’s Free Winner: Michigan State Spartans. Game 318. 2:00 PM PST/5:00 PM EST. Nebraska snapped a two-game slide in this series with last season’s home victory, 38-27. Now they must travel to East Lansing to face a Michigan State opponent that happens to be a covering machine. That’s right, my friends the Spartans have covered all three games this season, and going back a bit further five in a row and eight of their last nine overall contests. They face the same tough opponents the Cornhuskers do being in the Big Ten. Meanwhile, what can we say about Nebraska? They had three very easy opponents thus far being favored by as little as 23.5 points and as high as 30.5 points. They failed to cover their last outing against North Dakota, and going back a bit, they have failed to cover four of their last six and seven of their last 10 overall outings. Michigan State had a lot of trouble in their last outing on the road at Notre Dame, failing to get their ground game in gear along with a lackluster passing attack. But I feel they’re in for a big bounce back in this matchup here. Yes, Nebraska is 3-0. But those victories came against two MAC teams and one FCS opponent. If you recall a season ago, they failed to win any of their final three games against Penn State, Iowa, and Utah. They were smoked in all three of those games. They’re also not the greatest covering on the road either. While the MSU offense leaves a lot to be desired, their defense is good enough to put some pressure on Nebraska’s quarterback and keep this game a lot closer than the point spread. Playing in East Lansing in front of their very loud and loyal fans gives the Spartans a big edge in this matchup. Making them an underdog in their first Big Ten outing at home will further motivate them to come out here and make a good appearance. The Cornhuskers have big matchups upcoming against the Terrapins, the Hoosiers, the Ducks and the Huskies all in a row. Maybe they’ll overlook this week’s opponent just a bit. Take MSU. Thank you.
