Michigan State has to use their exceptional special teams to take care of business here, at 21.20 /punt return and 20.72 /kick return they will have good field position all day. Which therefore gives Payton Thorne and company a shorter field to attack. Michigan State is going to need to throw the ball - because Pittsburgh's front can be hard to attack.


We know that Michigan State is going to hang points on the board, they have lit up scoreboards all year long. Michigan State has played tougher competition this season - which is going to give them the edge plus PITT is without their Star QB who carried them all season.



Panthers are 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 vs. Big Ten.
