Saturday’s Michigan State football win over the Penn State Nittany Lions was an impressive show of force as the Spartans downed James Franklin and Co., 55-16. Spartan Stadium was rocking, knowing that the Big Ten title game was on the line and a win would send the Spartans in to face No. 4 Iowa.
Michigan State has recorded its fifth 11-win season in the past six years thanks to the victory and the Spartans now have a chance to improve to 12-1 with a win over the Hawkeyes and the victor of Saturday’s Big Ten Championship will almost surely be headed to the College Football Playoff.
