The Michigan State offense in 2021 was a revelation that was the driving force behind a surprising amount of wins (11). The Spartans enjoyed an explosive passing game with wide receivers Jayden Reed and Jalen Nailor to go along with a dynamic ground attack spearheaded by Kenneth Walker III, who had perhaps the most unexpected and impactful individual performance of the college football season.
With that said, the offensive line’s contributions were deemed as adequate, not a negative or positive in any sweeping sense. It’s odd that a position group viewed as a foundation to any success was seen as incidental to the achievements.
