Michigan State football unveils new uniform combo for Purdue game

Michigan State unveils new uniform combo, helmet for Purdue game

We have noted this before, but I think it’s fair to say that Jonathan Smith has been a little more conservative when it comes to uniform choices for his Michigan State football team this year than what we’ve seen the past few seasons.

That being said, for Friday night’s match-up against Purdue, the Spartans will debut a new uniform combo that I don’t believe we’ve ever seen before. MSU will wear their standard home green jerseys with black pants and an awesome black helmet that appears to have some white specks dotted around it.

You can see the video debuting the new uniform combination below:

MSU Football reportedly could end Ryan Walters’ tenure at Purdue

If Michigan State beats Purdue on Friday night, then it could be curtains for Boilermakers head coach Ryan Walters

If Michigan State takes care of business and beats Purdue on Friday night, then it could be curtains for Boilermakers head coach Ryan Walters.

College football insider Pete Nakos of On3 is reporting that Friday night’s matchup between Purdue and Michigan State is a “huge game” for Walters’ future. Walters is in his second season at Purdue and would be owed $9.5 million if he was let go after this season.

Purdue is 1-9 on the year and has lost nine straight games. The Boilermakers lone win came in the season-opener against FCS foe Indiana State.

Michigan State comes into this game as a near two-touchdown favorite over the Boilermakers. This is a massive game for the Spartans as well, with Michigan State needing to win both of its final two games to reach bowl eligibility.

Prediction and betting odds for MSU vs. Purdue in Week 13

Analyzing Friday’s Michigan State-Purdue game with odds and lines, predictions and best bets

For only the second time this year, Michigan State is listed as a favorite over an FBS opponent.

Michigan State football returns home on Friday night in a nationally televised matchup against Purdue. The Spartans enter this game as a sizable favorite, which is the first time they’ve been listed as a favorite since the season-opener against Florida Atlantic. There wasn’t an official line posted for the Spartans’ third game of the season against FCS foe Prairie View A&M, and Michigan State has otherwise been an underdog this year.

Michigan State comes into this game looking to snap a three-game losing streak and keep its bowl hopes alive. The Spartans are 4-6 overall and 2-5 in Big Ten play this year.

It has been a rough year for Purdue, who comes into this matchup with a 1-9 record and 0-7 mark in league play. The Boilermakers haven’t won since their season-opening victory over FCS foe Indiana State.

Michigan State vs. Purdue prediction, pick

The way Michigan State is playing makes it wild that they are a two-touchdown favorite over anyone. But that also shows how bad Purdue has been this year. While the Boilermakers have been brutal, I find it hard to pick Michigan State to win a game by two touchdowns right now. This one will surely be closer than it should be…

Prediction: Michigan State 23, Purdue 14

The Michigan State vs. Purdue game starts at 8 p.m. ET on Friday and will b televised on FOX.
