Bad Betting Advice, 2025 Week Six: Road Trip!

The Michigan State Spartans spent most of the month of September at home in East Lansing. Things got off to a good start as the Green and White raced out to a 3-0 start. Two weeks ago, the Spartans boarded a plane bound for Los Angeles. Once they arrived, they found that that the night life out there is not all that they were hoping it would be. Michigan State returned from the west coast banged up and with a loss to USC. It was such a bummer of a trip that they took last weekend off. This week, the freshly-rested Spartans are preparing for yet another road trip. This time the destination is Lincoln, Neb. and the opponent is the equally-well-rested Nebraska Cornhuskers.  Lincoln is way closer to East Lansing than Los Angeles. Google Maps tells me that it is a mere 740 miles. One could make the drive in under 12 hours. That may sound like a lot, but just think about breathtaking scenery that awaits once one passes through Chicago and has the opportunity to drive through rural Illino...
