Michigan State Football: 3 bold predictions vs. Iowa in Week 10

1. Michigan State pulls off the win late

This one is going to have that typical Big Ten backyard brawl feel. It’s going to be a physical, defensive battle between the Spartans and Hawkeyes like this matchup usually is and I’m going to say it’ll be decided by less than seven points and I may have predicted Iowa to win in other posts, I’m going with the Spartans here by a touchdown as my bold prediction.

Michigan State is going to score a touchdown in a tie ballgame in the final minutes thanks to a toss from Rocky Lombardi to Jayden Reed to make it 24-17 and that’s where it’ll end.

These scrappy Spartans showed that they can go on the road, make adjustments throughout the game and match teams punch-for-punch. This team doesn’t get easily rattled and if they can avoid turnovers, the Spartans are tough to beat — just ask Michigan.

Mel Tucker will lead his troops to another big road win that many didn’t expect before the season to improve to 2-1 on the season and maybe they’ll even get more AP Top 25 votes.
