Michigan State at Indiana Prediction09/22/2018

The Spartans had last week off to get back on track, but they're still dealing with injuries to their offensive line. Starting LT Cole Chewins and G David Beedle are both iffy this week, and if they don't go, we may have them repeating Week 2's offensive production. Hoosiers' QB Peyton Ramsey has shown dual-threat ability which should help Indiana sustain clock-eating drives.
