For the second straight week a briefly dormant rivalry is rekindled. This time it’s Michigan State’s #RealRival, Wisconsin, in the Big Ten season opener.

The Spartans and Badgers have their fair share of similarities — big early season wins and powerful ground games — but stark contrasts as well. Can Mark Dantonio topple the program he once used as the blueprint for his own?
