MSU vs. Indiana Prediction: Can Spartans knock off another ranked foe?

The 2020 Michigan State Spartans have been extremely fitting for this year because like with 2020, you literally have no idea what you’re going to get from week-to-week with MSU.

We are only three games into the season, and we’ve already seen the high’s and low’s of the Spartans. The high was obviously in Week 2 when Michigan State upset hated rival Michigan — who was ranked No. 13 at the time — in the Big House. And the lows were the turnovers-provoked blowout losses to Rutgers and Iowa. It’s literally flip-flopped from week-to-week so far this season.

The lack of consistency from week-to-week would normally be extremely frustrating as a fan, but with MSU — who entered the season with low expectations — it gives you the ability to see how they can potentially win every game, except for Ohio State. No, that doesn’t mean I anticipate the Spartans running the table — that’s not what I’m getting at. What I’m saying is, on paper this should be an easy Indiana win but since we’ve seen how good MSU can play at times this year, we know an upset is possible. Not likely, but possible.

With all of that being said, let’s see if anyone on the Spartans Wire staff is bold enough to peg MSU for another upset this week.
