Michigan State at Maryland: Prediction, point spread, odds, best bet

Michigan State football is a big underdog in this week’s road trip to Maryland

The Michigan State Spartans play the Maryland Terapins on Saturday, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet at BetMGM.

The game starts at 3:30 p.m. ET and can be seen on Fox Sports 1.

Michigan State will be looking to get its season back on track after losing its last two games in blowout fashion. Maryland also dropped their first game of the season last week, but looked far more impressive in nearly upsetting Michigan on the road.

Advice and prediction

It’s hard to have much faith in the Spartans right now, especially against an offense that likes to throw the ball around the field like Maryland. The one thing you have to remember is that under Mel Tucker when the Spartans have lost it’s always been by double-digits. So the trend here is to either pick an outright victory for Michigan State or Maryland to cover the spread with a convincing win. I may regret this decision — or change my mind later this week — but today I’m going to call for the Michigan State upset.

Prediction: Michigan State – 34, Maryland – 31
