Free Press sports writers predict the Michigan State Spartans football game vs. Wisconsin Badgers on Saturday in East Lansing (4 p.m., Fox). The Badgers are about a touchdown favorite.

Jump around, Spartans fans! Sure, the Badgers trounced Northwestern last week, getting their post-firing bump after canning Paul Chryst the week prior. But MSU isn’t a green-and-white version of Northwestern, especially for homecoming and with bowl eligibility pretty much being decided with this game, the first of its last four winnable games, ’cause the 2-4 Spartans ain’t winning at Michigan or at Penn State.
