MSU 75
Because, why not?
The GRAND IF: If we beat MSU, that'll mean we've won 3 of 4 last B1G GAMES: W over UCLA, Nebby, MSU. L to PSU on road. These four outcomes, I'd guess (all dependent on stunner on Sat) will have moved the needle a bit in our direction--though I know how much more is needed. yes?

MSU's size and athleticism is going to kill us. They outrebound opponents 41 to 31, and that's our weakness. Izzo has his best team in several years, and with Dylan and Ogbole (who is important for this game to combat MSU's size) hobbled, it just makes things that much more difficult.
MSU 82
Rutgers 73
Only chance for a Rutgers win is if Dylan and Ace score 20-30 points apiece and MSU has a woeful day shooting from deep. Sparty is already last in the Big Ten in 3-pt shooting percentage (28.8%), so we have to hope they have a 2-18 day from behind the arc.

I predict people will complain about giving a home game away by playing at MSG
Haha. I’m having a nice nyc steak Saturday evening and I have very low expectations so my mood will change dramatically over 3 hours. Have a good one.
Seems pretty unlikely considering we're scheduled to play at Northwestern next Wednesday.
Th comment should have said not playing a home game at a neutral cite like the Prudential Center or MSG.
If they don't rebound or defend, it will get ugly. I would think this would be a point of emphasis in practice.
We can rebound and defend to the greatest of our capabilities, but without a 100 percent Dylan we will still lose.
