Michigan at Michigan State (+7)

Sat. 10/20, 12:00 p.m. ET

Three things to know before betting on Michigan-Michigan State:

1. First played in 1898, Michigan-Michigan State is one of college football's premier rivalries. It's a series that Michigan has dominated overall by a margin of 69-36-5, but the Spartans got the better of the Wolverines last year, winning 14-10 at the Big House. In that game, Michigan was forced to start backup quarterback John O'Korn, who completed 45.7% of his passes and threw three interceptions in the defeat. It was Michigan State's eighth straight-up win in the last 10 games in the series.
