The Michigan State Spartans and Ohio State Buckeyes are playing on the Big Ten conference schedule and the matchup from Columbus starts at 3:30 pm ET and will be on TV from ABC. The game is a big matchup for the conference and the College Football Playoff and has number 9 MSU coming in to take on number 3 OSU.
Ohio State comes in on a 23-game winning streak and the team is 10-0 this season and 6-0 in the conference and this could be the toughest game of the season. The Spartans come in at 9-1 this season and 5-1 in the conference and JT Barrett is going to get another chance to see if he can keep the starting job. Ezekiel Elliott has been the most consistent player for the Buckeyes and he comes in having put up 15-straight 100-yard games for the team. UPDATE: Connor Cook is out for the game.
The Buckeyes come in after a 28-3 win against Illinois and head coach Urban Meyer said that the offense has to find a way to click more moving forward. Meyer has only lost one game in the conference and that was against Michigan State in the title game a couple years ago and now he has the chance to keep things going with a win against the Spartans. Connor Cook comes into the game for MSU with a shoulder injury and that could help tip the scales for the Buckeyes.
