Michigan and Michigan State will renew their in-state college football rivalry on Saturday at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing at noon.
The No. 24-ranked Spartans have won eight of the last 10 games between the two teams but the No. 6-ranked Wolverines have won six straight games this year, including last week's 38-13 triumph over Wisconsin.
