Big Ten Predictions - Week 9

Big Ten

Game of the Week

Spartans vs Huskers

Michigan State is going to try to beat Michigan, Ohio State and Nebraska all in the same month this week as the Spartans head to Lincoln.  Michigan State is coming off the last second stunner of Wisconsin in East Lansing.  Nebraska just blew out a really bad Minnesota team and probably were looking ahead to Michigan State at halftime last week.  If Michigan State wins that’s a HUGE leap forward toward Indy.  A Nebraska win brings the Spartans back to the pack of Michigan, Nebraska and Iowa and the race for the Legends Division is on.  I think that the first quarter there may be some affect on Michigan State and the drop off from last week, but by the 2^nd and 3^rd quarters they get Martinez into some throwing situations and pull it out in Lincoln.  Spartans 24 – Huskers 20
