    How do we not take MSU +13 at Ohio State?

    Seems pretty inflated. I will personally look to play Sparty. I think the defense keeps this game close, plus Ohio state isn't blowing anyone out these days. MSU right back in playoff talk with a Win here, I don't see them going out lightly

    It is tempting but if MSU defense plays like in the Husker game OSU will score on every drive. MSU CBs are terrible, give up huge play after huge play

    Yeah but OSU's passing game is just as terrible. Stop Elliott and contain the QB and OSU's offense is stuck in mud. MSU is no world beater but neither is OSU. Give me the points.

    because starting Sparty QB Connor Cook injured his shoulder in the Maryland game......his status is uncertain although he says it feels "great".

    EAST LANSING - With Michigan State's biggest game of the season coming Saturday, the question all week will be about howConnor Cook's throwing shoulder is feeling. On Monday night, he answered the question for the first time since after the Spartans' 24-7 win against Maryland.
    "The shoulder is great," Cook said on an MSU teleconference. "It feels good."
    Cook was asked if he had X-rays on the shoulder or has been able to throw the ball since Saturday, but declined to answer.
    The senior took a hard hit with 4:21 to play in the first quarter against Maryland. He came off the field with his right shoulder and arm hanging, but returned to start the second quarter. He then sat out the second half Saturday, which he said after the game was a precautionary measure. MSU coach Mark Dantonio said he felt Cook was lacking his usual velocity on the ball after the hit, while Cook said his arm felt "funny."
    The 6-foot-4, 220-pound Cook has completed 56.3 percent of his passes this season for 2,482 yards and 21 touchdowns with just four interceptions. He was just 6 of 20 for 77 yards with no touchdowns and an interception against Maryland.

    famous last words, flipper...that's exactly what general custard thought when he saw the Indians for the first time.."these guys don't look so tough"...ps...you didn't watch the Maryland game...Cook was throwing weak ass ducks after getting hit and it was painfully obvious (pun intended) he wasn't himself.

    Been paying attention to both teams this year. I have a clue, and it's less than 2 touchdowns

    Line speaks for itself.

    Cook not 100%, MSU can't run, and their DBs are non-existent due to injury and ineffectiveness.

    Line is unusually inflated.

    But I look at how Ohio State played against these sh#$ squads and say to myself....

    Give me the +13

    No brainer



    Michigan State getting beat by 14 or more is an absolute embarrassment to the entire season.

    Can't let it happen.

    If your involved taking the points seems to be the only choice
