MICHIGAN STATE #15 PREDICTIONS FROM THE MICHIGAN DAIL Y FOOTBALL BEAT Theo Mackie Max Marcovitch Ethan Sears Aria Gerson Maya Goldman Michigan 27 MSU 7 MSU is in complete freefall, while Michi- gan is playing its best football of the season. The Spartans’ defense has been vulnerable for weeks. Anything less than an easy win would be a disappointment.

Even if it’s not a com- plete beatdown, Michi- gan should pull away late in the game. Michigan 38 MSU 7 Michigan hasn’t lost at home in two years, and by “hasn’t lost at home,” I mean “has three blowout wins against better teams than the Spartans.
