By Sunday afternoon, Michigan State will know in which bowl game it is playing.
Once there, it will be up to the Spartans to make the most of it.
Coming off a season with seven wins might be enough for some programs to simply enjoy an extra few days of fun — preferably somewhere warm — and celebrate. For a team like Michigan State, though, that had championship aspirations, it offers an opportunity to begin the work of getting back on track headed into 2019.
The Spartans, once again, should have the benefit of returning the bulk of its starters.
