The computers like Boston College this week in a narrow victory over the Spartans.

ESPN’s Bill Connelly has released his SP+ predictions for each week four game, and his rating metrics have Michigan State coming up short this weekend. SP+ predicts a Boston College victory over the Spartans by the score of 25-19.

Michigan State is currently listed as a 6.5-point underdog on FanDuel so SP+ essentially aligns with that betting line. Last week, SP+ was spot on with in the Spartans’ game — predicting a 40-0 victory for Michigan State which was the actual final score on Saturday.

Kickoff between the Spartans and Eagles is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET and the game will be televised on the ACC Network. Michigan State comes into this matchup 3-0 on the year, while Boston College is 2-1 following a narrow loss at top 10 Missouri this past weekend.

Michigan State football is back at it this week in a big-time road trip to wrap up non-conference play.

The Spartans head out east again looking for another road victory — this time facing off against Boston College. Michigan State shut out Prairie View A&M this past weekend to improve to 3-0 on the season, and will have one more non-conference tilt this week before the focus turns to Big Ten play again.

Boston College comes into this game with a 2-1 mark on the year, losing its first game this past weekend at top 10 Missouri. The Eagles are a touchdown favorite in this matchup against the Spartans.
