Michigan State Spartans vs Indiana Hoosiers football

After a loss to rival Michigan last week, the Spartans (4-4, 2-3 Big Ten) must win two of their last four games to earn bowl eligibility, something the program hasn't accomplished since 2021. It helps that three remaining four games are in East Lansing.

The final round begins against an Indiana team that is in the midst of a historic season. The Hoosiers, ranked No. 13 in the country, are off to an 8-0 start, the first time they've done that since 1967. The Hoosiers have never won 10 games in a single season and appear to have the talent under first-year coach Curt Cignetti.

Michigan State will try to spoil Indiana's perfect season and retain possession of the Old Brass Spittoon, the trophy awarded to the winner of this match.
