Betting public not loving MSU and UM this week

[Honeyman]

Spartan line opened at 17 and has been bet up to 20 1/2. Michigan was -7 and has been bet down to 4 1/2.

Spartan line has stayed at 20/20.5 all week. More money has come in on Iowa, the line is now 3 1/2 everywhere.

Personally, I am not betting a side in either game. FWIW, I do really like the under (47 1/2) in the Michigan-Iowa game though.

As much as I would like to see both teams tonight disqualified, this is the only game of the year I will root for MIchigan State.

Iowa is a weird team. I'll take an ugly 10-3 win over them any day!

Shea isn't the guy. In this system, the qb run threat has to be there and it isn't.

Ohio State by 4 tds.

We both know that wasn't THE game.

Nailed that one!

There is a Big Ten adage...."Away Iowa is a different team than Kinnick Iowa". Proved very true Saturday. I did think the Michigan defense was impressive, however Stanley was terrible.

No major early movements this week. MSU went from + 9 1/2 to 10, Michigan at -19. I don't think the Spartans cover, though we clearly match up better with Wisconsin than we do OSU. Run defense "should" be a strength on Saturday. We won;t be losing by 35 points at any point during the game though...that''s for sure.

Guess what? Michigan State lost by 38 points!

Touché. And the game wasn't as close as the score indicated.

Never been this disillusioned with an MSU team since the John L. era. Lewerke seems completely lost, not a good sign for a senior QB. Defense is deteriorating, and the stupid penalties continue. Unless we run the table, a virtual impossibility, I think Dantonio is done.
