Michigan State vs. Minnesota: Will Spartans bounce back in Big Ten opener?

See our predictions for Michigan State’s Big Ten opener against Minnesota on Saturday

Last week was ugly for the Spartans, but it’s a new week and Michigan State will look to pick up a much-needed bounce-back victory over Minnesota on Saturday.

The Spartans were shredded by Washington last week to drop their first game of the year. Minnesota, on the flip side, rolled past Colorado to remain undefeated on the season and improve to 3-0. Saturday marks the Big Ten opener for both the Spartans and Golden Gophers — which is a massive game for a pair of teams that have aspirations of winning the Big Ten this year.
