Pitt opened as a slight favorite over Michigan State in the Peach Bowl after the matchup was announced, with DraftKings setting the Panthers as 3.5-point favorites over the Spartans. However, as Pickett’s status came into question, the line shifted. And on Friday, the day after Pickett and Michigan State running back Kenneth Walker III announced they would forgo the Peach Bowl, DraftKings had Michigan State as a three-point favorite.
In addition, the DraftKings moneyline odds shifted from minus-115 for Pitt and minus-105 for Michigan State on Dec. 7 to plus-120 for Pitt and minus-140 for Michigan State on Friday.
