Predictions from across America on Michigan State-Michigan

There's no Iowa game. But Saturday's Michigan State-Michigan game is of great interest to the Hawkeyes and their fans.

So what do to the pundits say? Pundits. That's a funny word.

As you can see, everyone expects a tight, high-scoring game, and there certainly is no consensus on the winner.

Tony Barnhart, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Michigan 38-35.

John Tamanaha, NBCsports.com: Michigan State 32-31. His key: 15-play drives for the Spartans.

Phil Steele, philsteele.com: Michigan 38-31.

Adam Rittenberg, ESPN.com: Michigan State 37-35. Says Adam: Spartans quarterback Kirk Cousins continues his second-half brilliance and fires a pair of touchdown passes. Cousins also drives Michigan State in the closing minutes, setting up a game-winning Dan Conroy field goal.

Jon Wilner, San Jose Mercury News: Michigan.

Matt Hayes, The Sporting News: Michigan State 33-30.

Scott Michaux, Augusta Chronicle: Michigan 38-35.

Tom Izzo, Michigan State men's basketball coach: “I have to predict we're going to win, that's just the way it works,” Izzo said with a laugh.
