Predicting the final score of every 2024 Michigan State football game

12. Rutgers

If all of my predictions so far have come true, that means Michigan State has already had a better season than pretty much everyone expected. So that leads me to wonder where their motivation will be for the season finale against Rutgers.

Sure this game will be senior night and you always want to play extra hard for those teammates who are playing their final game at Spartan Stadium, but I think MSU will struggle against Rutgers since they already hit seven wins in this hypothetical season.

Then you have to factor in that Rutgers will be a fairly decent team this season. The Scarlet Knights should make a bowl game this season and have a great chance to win upwards of seven or eight games this year. So put all of that together and this game makes me nervous.

So while I hate to make this prediction on senior night, but I just don’t see Michigan State coming away with a win. But at the end of the day I won’t be too upset since they’ve already won seven games.

Prediction: Rutgers wins 27-24

Final record: 7-5, 4-5
