Michigan is coming into this game with a 6-8 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They have lost their last 3 straight games with 2 of those losses coming at home and 1 of those at a neutral location. They have not been awful on the road this season as they are 2-1, but their wins were against Iowa and St. John's while their loss was against Oregon. They have also struggled more in the conference as they are 1-2 to start the season, beating Iowa on the road but losing to Indiana and Minnesota at home. They are going up against a Penn State team that is 7-7 this season and they have been playing much better recently. They have won 2 of their last 3 as well as 3 of their last 5 games with all of those wins coming at home and both of those losses on the road. They are coming off of a tough loss in their last game as they got destroyed by a very good Michigan State team on the road, but they will be hungry to bounce back here at home as they do have a quality conference win at home against Ohio State this season. They have also been a much better team at home this season as they have won 7 of their 8 games there, including the last 3 straight. Michigan has been a very inconsistent team this season while Penn State has been similar but they have also been more consistent and much better when playing at home. Penn State will cover the spread in this game.
