Well, here we are. Michigan State passed its first real test of the season against Michigan last Saturday in a game for the ages and now controls its own destiny heading into the home stretch of the regular season. The Spartans currently sit at No. 3 in the initial College Football Playoff rankings, but still have work to do.
Most MSU fans have now had time to process the magnitude of the rivalry game victory, so we don't have to dive too deep there.
