Result:
LOSS

Michigan State heads out on the road for the first time since the opener. Three offensive tackles -- Kodi Kieler, Jack Conklin and Dennis Finley -- have been sidelined with injuries. You need defense to contend on the road and the Spartans have a talented unit, allowing 21, 10 and 21 points the last three games. They also held no-huddle Oregon to 123 yards rushing in week two, just 2.9 yards per carry and 4-of-13 on third down. Michigan State is 4-1 UNDER the total following a spread loss. They face a shaky Rutgers offense that has been hit hard by suspensions, scoring 3 and 27 points the last two weeks -- and the last game was against defenseless Kansas. QB Chris Laviano has six TDs, five picks on the year. The embattled Scarlet Knights have lost coach Kyle Flood (suspended three games) for contacting a faculty member about a player's grade. Running backs coach Norries Wilson has run the team the last two games. In addition, six players have been kicked off the team because of arrests. Rutgers is 15-6 UNDER the total following a spread loss and 5-2 UNDER after allowing less than 100 yards rushing in their previous game. When these teams met last season Rutgers got three points and 234 total yards while running for 3.3 yards per carry. Their weak offense will be even more challenged this weekend. Take the UNDER.
