    Really? Bama was favored by like 16.5 against undefeated A&M. You don't think they would be favored by at least 23 against Michigan State?

    People thought the Bama/Michigan State line was inflated last year in the playoff. How did that work out? That was a much better Sparty team too.

    What is you're angle for taking Michigan State?

    FYI, Wisconsin beat Michigan State by 24 this year in East Lansing and BYU beat State by 17 in East Lansing. "Let that sink in".

    Michigan will be out for blood. State won't be able to score.

    Alabama was -10 in the cotton bowl against a much better Michigan State team. Now, Alabama are better and State are shit. Line would be 20

    Bama was home against A&M, they would be on the road at MSU in this situation. That is an easy 8-9 points of value right there, flipping from @Bama to @MSU

    Did you back State last year against Bama? That was a much better Sparty team than this years squad.

    So you're saying you would take MSH +23 against Bama?

    Why do you like Sparty against Michigan? What's your angle?

    What do you think the line should be?

    None of us can tell the future obviously but I see nothing that makes me want to put money on State. Michigan's defense will suffocate them and probably force some turnovers in the process.

    Alabama -20 at Michigan State would be my line

    EDIT: I would probably have to have +24 to consider making a play to be honest. My point is that Michigan is NOT Alabama

    But, how many coaches turned a program around for the good.... and then started losing consecutive home games like mad? I know a few State supporters who live and die with the football program... and they are already sick and tired of being embarrassed by mediocre programs. In fact.... they are absolutely confused by what's going on. No job is safe.

    If Izzo started losing games... he'd be fired too. Or you simply step down.
    WTF are you talking about? They're "sick and tired of being embarrassed by mediocre programs"? After a few weeks?

    Let me guess, more millennials.

    Let me clarify something in a thread that's already way too long: there is no angle on taking any number or side in this game. If you bet it either way with a full slate of games in front of you, you're a square sucker.

    You'll bitch and moan and whine about conspiracies and other bullshit when you start losing, just like always.

    Rinse, recycle, repeat.

    I may be wrong... but I'm trying to think how Harbaugh would approach this game.
    Therein lies the problem, they cant do that. State might score 10-13 pts the entire game. Prob no more than 7 by halftime. Blue doesnt have to OPEN it up, they will move the ball and score by default in a sense. We've seen how crappy BYU defense is and State could only muster 14 pts against them, one of those in the last 8 min. Only 206 yards of offense the entire game. This team is putrid.

    You guys are dumbasses. Michigan played Colorado AND Wisconsin at Michigan. They played Rutgers at Rutgers.

    They'll either have a bad senior or an unprepared freshman at QB. Against that D.

    Yeah, good luck with that.

    I'm betting Michigan. GL backing State.

    I have a feeling after about five minutes Sparty backers will be feeling like it's impossible for their side to score.

    Unfortunately I was way wrong on this bet. Michigan just didn't come to play on defense. They'll still win the game, but certainly not by 4 TD's.

    Does anyone have any money I can borrow?

    Michigan blowing this one. Game going according to plan and then Michigan scores 10 in like 3 minutes to end half. Then getting nothing from the 2 yard line
