Yesterday I wrote about Michigan State being primed for a run at the 2015 national championship. In today’s column, I’d rather take a look into the “what if” ramifications of a successful Sparty run to the title.
I have no particular affinity for the Spartans, but neither have I been particularly soured on them from the actions of their fans. I have had both good and bad interactions with MSU fans, in about equal measure, which has at least had the effect that I don’t outright hate Michigan State…in football, anyway. In fact, I kind of like Mark Dantonio, and Ohio State fans will forever be in his debt for building that monstrosity of a defense that punished the Miami Hurricanes in the 2003 Fiesta Bowl.
