WKU vs Michigan State Game Preview
Why WKU Will Win
Michigan State, welcome to the Bailey Zappe experience.
WKU went from 0-to-60 in one offseason with the addition of the Houston Baptist offensive parts to make the thing go, and it’s working.
The Hilltoppers are second in the nation in passing, third in passing efficiency, and they’re firing at will with over 400 yards per game through the air.

The Spartans will be in for a scare, but the defense will figure out how to slow this thing down when absolutely needed.
