Michigan State football is in a must-win situation if they’d like to extend their season and receive a bowl bid.
The Spartans will head to Happy Valley this week in need of a victory to get to 6-6 and secure a bowl bid. Michigan State still could possibly land a bowl bid if they lose, but their best chance of reaching the postseason would be by upsetting the Nittany Lions.
Penn State enters this game 9-2 on the year with their lone losses coming against undefeated Michigan and Ohio State. The Nittany Lions are listed as a three-possession favorite in this game and could lock up a New Year’s Six bowl bid with a victory over the Spartans.
