Undefeated Michigan once again appears to be on a collision course with Ohio State, having cruised through the first part of its schedule in 2022. But first the Wolverines will have to get past their other rival, Michigan State, this weekend in Ann Arbor.

In an appearance on ESPN’s Get Up Friday, Howard expressed his concern about the upcoming rivalry matchup, explaining that the Spartans will surely come into the game juiced up. Though Michigan State is 3–4 on the year, the ESPN analyst explained that the program will treat this weekend’s contest as its own sort of national championship.
