I really think the 3.5 at home against ND is a gift. Somebody please talk me out of mortgaging my house on this game.

I would keep making house payments.

ND now has the pressure off of them about losing a game. But they also have to face the possiblity of losing 2 in a row.

I dont know that much yet about Mich St, but they better bring their A game.

ND could easily win this game and cover.

Series history shows an advantage for Michigan State. They're 8-2 ATS in the last ten and have won six of the last eight contests outright. Interesting to note, however, is the last two match-ups in East Lansing, Notre Dame has won and covered, so i guess i just sent you a mixed message.

Michigan State is 11-1 ATS as a home dog off a win....but when they finally do lose during the course of the season, they really tail spin.

Notre Dame is 3-13 ATS as a single digit favorite vs the Big Ten. This year they have an impressive cover against Penn State in this role and a total egg against Michigan in this role.

Not sure either defense can stop the other's offense, so maybe forget about betting your mortage and make a smaller play on the Over!

Good luck!

Weiss off a loss vs John L Smith is enough for me to take a small bite........

I was on the other side of ND vs Tech and Michigan, but think there is small over reaction here to ND's loss this past weekend. That game was clearly out of control early........I think Notre Dame comes out with a chip on their shoulder after the loss and rolls Michigan State.

Do you think ND remembers State planting their flag on their 50 last year in the OT win? I do.....:nono:

I love to route against ND whenever I can, and rarely bet with them, but this is a situation where I think they roll. Maybe a sqaure bet, maybe not.....

I've been perfect on ND games this season...and I agree with all of the above. That being said, I can foresee a shoot out which could go either way unless ND's defensive secondary can step up. I won't touch this one, but if I played anything, it would be over with a slight lean to ND. :shrug:

Depends what spread you get. Anything over 3 at home is a good play on MSU. ND is overrated and their backers usually move the spread. I like getting points on a cool night in Michigan.

as much as i love nd and think they were a bit over-rated to start the year (looked like a 2 loss team to me, not a title game type team)

i love them in this spot vs mich state.

think it's gonna get ugly like nd vs purdue last year and nd wins easy (and for the record....i didnt like nd vs gt and passed, loved nd vs psu and liked mich vs nd)

Couldn't agree more gjn. I think the fact that they got embarrassed by Michigan last week spells bad news for Mich. State. If they had beaten Michigan or if it had been a close game I may lay off. But given that they got steamrolled you know they're going to be looking to put a hurtin' on their next opponent. I also can't shake the notion that this MSU team struggled against frigging Idaho of all teams.

I have hit $$$ on all 3 ND games this year and I can not find a reason to bet either team, or should I say I am finding too many reasons to bet both teams.

Did Michigan State really roll up over 300 yards rushing last week @ Pitt? :scared I didn't watch the game but how the hell did that happen?

The thing that really throws me for a loop about ND is that they were +3 in turnovers vs PSU and they rolled and they were -4 turnovers vs Michigan and they got rolled.

Would these games have been considerably closer if the turnover situation was about even in both?

Because I think yes, I think it is hard to gauge who the real ND is. They should show their true selves tonite, but I don't know who is gonna show up! :com: :shrug:

But throwing down big loot on this one IMO is a :nono: :nono: :nono:

Just a thought :SIB

good luck either way
