Michigan State hosts a MAC opponent for the second straight week as Western Michigan will visit Spartan Stadium (3:30 p.m., BTN) on Saturday.

The Spartans (1-0) are coming off a 35-10 win over Bowling Green last week while the Broncos (0-1) fell short in their upset attempt with a 49-31 loss at No. 4 USC.

Michigan State owns a 12-2 edge in the all-time series and has won 10 straight against Western. The last meeting was a 37-24 win for the Spartans in 2015 in Kalamazoo. Here’s a scouting report by position and a prediction for the game:
