No. 14 Michigan State is back home for a mid-week Big Ten tilt against the cellar-dwelling Northwestern Wildcats (6:30 BTN). There are no *easy* games in the conference this season, but this is about as good as it gets in terms of matchups. MSU absolutely cannot lose this game as they embark on a brutal ten-game stretch to end the season. Let’s take a look at how these two teams match up from a statistical standpoint and where edges can perhaps be gleaned.
