EAST LANSING, Mich. – The unrefined essence of Connor Cook’s winning ways first became evident in the final game of the 2012 season.

Twenty-seven wins later, Cook is on the verge of becoming the all-time leader for victories by a Spartan starting quarterback heading into Saturday’s 100th Homecoming game and Big Ten opener against Purdue.
