East Mich +32.5 at Sparty (ov/un 46.5) Sat 3:30 BTN

[BB73]

Sparty is ticked off, and Ypsilanti borders Ann Arbor, so they can let out some frustration on Little Brother's Little Neighbor.

Should I have said Big Brother's? Maybe once they stop the streak.

MSU looks bored/lackluster so far, outside a few big Bell runs.

Unlike the Bucks though, I anticipate that once the game wears on, the talent/depth will show and they will cruise.

E. Michigan outsmarts themselves, make QB switch and have their worst offensive series of the quarter.

 

[OhioState001]

MSU's WR's are bad if we play this soft coverage its going to be a waste and their QB isn't all that good either.

 

[OhioState001]

7-3 EMU with 3 mins left in 1st half

 

[Ryan36_1]

And that is why it is dangerous to not assert dominance early when playing an inferior opponent.

E Michigan TD after a turnover. 7-3 EMU

 

[FrancisSoyer]

Wow, done with B1G football until 7:30. Mind numbingly bad.

 

[BuckJr]

Again not afraid of this MSU team. Their QB/offense is awful and they only have Bell. A good overall defenses but their DBs look slow.

 

[OhioState001]

Let's just pray that Fickell and Withers get our coverage figured out and their mediocre receivers aren't wide open all day, other than that load the box baby

 

[Ryan36_1]

What a bad call.

 

[BuckJr]

7-3 EMU going into the half.

OSU can beat this team. Why do I see post about a future beat down next week. Maybe both these teams are looking forward to next week and aren't showing up.

Still, MSU is not a juggernaut. They got exposed vs ND and currently playing awful vs EMU. I will take our 14 point victory right now considering how bad the rest of the big10 is looking.

Bucks and Spartans must really, really, be looking ahead to each other.

Just posted in next week's game thread that if you're pessimistic, we're in store for a pillow fight. Optimistic view is that these two teams are sleeping giants.

 

[BuckJr]

Sparty is refusing to pass, this tells me alot. They have no confidence in Maxwell and his receivers.

Narcolepsy is closer to the truth.

Agreed. If we give MSU the standard 10 yard DB cushion I will be highly upset.
