After losing to Northwestern at home, the second loss of the 2018 season, positivity isn’t exactly bubbling over around the Michigan State Spartans. However, national analysts still have high expectations for this team.
The consensus from the major outlets is the Spartans are headed to Florida for the Outback Bowl on January first. That would be the most prestigious bowl appearance for MSU since 2015. It would be the first New Year’s bowl game for the Spartans since the 2014 season.
Analysts from SB Nation, ESPN, USA Today, Sports Illustrated and CBS Sports all predict Michigan State will play in the Outback Bowl in Tampa, Florida.
