Happy Friday, TOC. We are back with another round of our version of The Price Is Right. Michigan State hosting Penn State tomorrow in the last true home game of the season. Here are our predictions for
this game, as well as some picks on the other top games of the week.
In the comments, we want to see what you think the final score will be.
Michigan State vs. Penn State
Mike: Penn State wins the 2025 Disappointment Bowl 25-24. The Nittany Lions get a touchdown as time expires and then decide to go for 2 and the win. MSU experiences another crushing way to lose and is officially eliminated from bowl eligibility for the fourth straight year.
Steve: Penn State 28 MSU 17
Lucas: PSU 31- MSU 24. Penn State emerges victorious in this matchup between letdown seasons and coaches named Smith. MSU will be rusty out of the gate after a bye week, and struggles to find offensive rhythm early. There is hope in the second half, before a late comeback ultimately falls short.
O: I think it will be a close game. Here are my thoughts about this game on the Penn State site. I agree with 2 of my cowriters in MSU scoring 24, but that’s not enough. Penn State wins 27-24.
