Saturday Blitz Vegas Big Ten Predictions Week 4
Eastern Michigan Eagles at No. 11 Michigan State Spartans
Line: Michigan State by 45
Michigan State got a much-needed bye week after such a bad loss to Oregon, but when you break it down, things weren’t as bad as they looked. So Oregon won by three scores. Well, Michigan State was up by two scores late in the game, and Oregon simply did what Oregon does against a young Michigan State linebacker squad. This team still has a chance to accomplish everything it wants to accomplish. The offense is in good shape, but it has to be more consistent late in games than it was against the Ducks. The defense has a great secondary but is still a bit of a work in progress in the front seven, so that is what the Spartans will want to work on this Saturday against Eastern Michigan.
Unfortunately, the Eagles are bad in every way possible, so there’s not much to read into from a blowout win here. But the Eagles at least have a decent run game that could test the Spartans young linebackers. If they want to pull off any upset, that has to happen along with lots and lots of luck.
Prediction
Why are we predicting this game? Why is it even being played? This will be an awful blowout in Michigan State’s favor, as the offense has a complete performance. Eastern Michigan will score once or twice, but that’ll be it.
Michigan: 45 Eastern Michigan: 7
