Nebraska getting hosed. One of those elbows that looked clearly inadvertent and Penn St winds up getting 4 free throws and the ball down 3.

Karma, it seems, as PSU misses 3 of the 4 FTs.

Make that 5 of 6 FTs.... lol. That is epic.

1) Well, the line on this one, if anyone is interested, is typically trending at MSU -2 with the O/U at 130 points on most sites. I could see Ohio State and the under by a hair (yet Massey projects the game at nearly a 50-50 tossup). The comparative stats would heavily favor the Buckeyes, but sadly for them, the game is in East Lansing. It seems like it should be close  regardless. 

2) I will probably tune in.

the bigger threat to challenge us for the championship? That said, MSU has looked disorganized the few times I looked in on them; I think OSU could take the game. For some reason, I am intrigued, and definitely plan to watch for a little while.

rooting for MSU. I think it's best that they split with each other, which means it's more likely that we would want the home team to win each game.

I think Ohio will win, but MSU beat Kansas and Ohio lost to Kansas, so using that information, we already know that MSU will win.

 

Yes, I will be watching, but it's not like I'll be jumping out of my seat or cheering. It will just be a casual interest on a saturday with little else on.

It's strange, but as more years pass, I find that I despise Michigan State much more passionately than OSU. I would like to see State's football, basketball, and hockey programs all shot directly into the sun. Metaphorically speaking.

I just can't stand the way all three teams play, there's seemingly very littlle art to any of it. They constantly push the physical/borderline-dirty enveolpe, daring the officials to make calls and knowing that not everything will get called, especially when they're at home.

I respect Izzo's teams but, yuck - playing against them must be like being in a street fight and playing for him doesn't look like much fun, either.

Their hockey team's style of play has been garbage for years - talk about wrecking the fastest game on earth. Trap, clutch, obstruct, hold, flip one at the net on occasion and try to win 2-1...

Their football program is a plague. Always has been...

Who do I want to lose more?  Ohio

Whose fans do I want to watch suffer? Staee

Will I watch? Some but not all of it, to watch the whole thing would sour my stomach.

IMO, it's always fun to watch teams I hate lose at home, just to see the butt-hurt of their home fans.  Therefore, best-case scenerio between these two teams is for the road team to always beat the home team.

If I knew we had a win in the bag against OSU I would root for them to beat MSU, but since we already lost once and we've yet to play the 2nd, I'm leaning towards OSU to lose.

Yes, we still have 2 games against MSU both of which could go against us (or for us, or split). But since we know for sure OSU has a win over us at this present point in time, I'm rooting for OSU to lose.

Not really sure why you wouldn't watch this game (by choice not circumstance). It should be a great game.



I don't know if I can root for anyone. I think State will lose more games, so I guess handing OSU an L might benefit us more. The great thing is, one of these teams has to lose and that helps us.



However, I think OSU takes it in a tight one. I would definitely enjoy watching the Izzone's tears.

Ohio to lose b/c they beat us and I hold very little fear towards MSU.  

I'll stream it while I'm supposed to finding a job and writing resumes.  Yes, this says a lot about my situation.

Go State. Ohio St needs to realize they suck this year. We'll get our revenge on Feb 5th and pay em back in spades. Anybody else think that Izzo looks a little like Mel Brooks? lol I just noticed it. GO WINGS
