MICHIGAN STATE RUMORS
Mark Dantonio Thinks Michigan State Would Have Won Last Year’s National Championship If There Was A Playoff
For Michigan State head coach Mark Dantonio, the College Football Playoff is coming one year too late.
According to the head coach of the Spartans, Michigan State would have won last year’s national championship if there was a playoff system in place, according to the Detroit News. While the Spartans did not get the chance to play for the national title, the team did win the 2013...

Mark Dantonio’s Tough Talk
Winning the Rose Bowl will change the way in which a program is perceived. It can certainly give a head coach the freedom to speak boldly about his team and announce to the world that the past no longer matters.
Michigan State was an “almost-but-not-quite” program for a long time. However, a Big Ten championship and a Rose Bowl conquest of Stanford have stripped away the “second...

Urban Meyer on Ohio State-Michigan State (and Michigan)
Monday in Chicago at the first of the Big Ten football media days, the head coach of Buckeyes was asked his thoughts on the Nov. 8 clash with Michigan State in East Lansing, a game getting more preseason hype at this point than the traditional regular-season ending clash with Michigan at Ohio Stadium.

Final Notes from Summer League
Don’t Be Smoove Adreian Payne was a standout at Michigan State during his four year tenure. A 6’10’’ beast that can battle down low or take a step back jumper was a constant threat for other defenses. He was drafted 15th overall by the Hawks to bring a stretch four off the bench and take […]

Spartans' QB Connor Cook still hungry after feasting in 2013
EAST LANSING, Mich. -- I'm having a hard time remembering an athlete more determined to avoid complacency than Michigan State quarterback Connor Cook.
He had a stunning, breakout year in 2013 despite beginning the season on the bench. First, he had to unseat starter Andrew Maxwell and then hold off highly-recruited freshman Damion Terry for the job. But he got better each week...

Video: The Michigan State Basketball Team Went Water Tubing And Had An Awesome Time
The Michigan State men’s basketball team will look a little different next season. Gone are, arguably, the team’s top three players in Keith Appling, Gary Harris and Adreian Payne. The 2014-15 squad likely won’t have chemistry problems, though.
Most of the members of the current crop of Spartans recently spent some time together. They went water tubing and appeared to have...

The Wolverines appear to be using the Spartans success as motivation for the upcoming season, however.
Stephen Loszewski tells me that UM has a huge sign in weight room that reads, “MSU, B1G Champs. What are you going to do about it?”

Michigan State Unveils Newly Renovated Locker Room Complete With Grammatical Errors
May I interest you in an apostrophe? The Michigan State Spartans unveiled their new locker room and it’s a pretty sweet set up, save for the missing apostrophe on this sign. I’m sure Michigan fans will be happy to remind them with a resounding “can’t read, can’t write” chant very soon. #MSU2014 Part of the […]

Video: Michigan State Fan Reflects On A “Dream” 2013 Season, Looks Ahead To The Fall With This Hype Video
2013 was something of a dream season for Michigan State. The Spartans had one of the most fierce defenses in recent college football history, won a Big Ten title and their first Rose Bowl since 1988, and posted the most victories, 13, in program history. After a season like that, naturally there are some big holes to fill for Mark Dantonio and his staff, but every member of the MSU...

Video: New Michigan State Football 2014 Trailer Features ’300′ Audio, Spartan Theme
Michigan State’s 2013 season was one of its best ever, with the Spartans going 13-1, and 8-0 in conference on the way to a Big Ten title and a Rose Bowl victory over Stanford. A repeat of that season would almost certainly have Michigan State in strong contention for a College Football Playoff berth, and that certainly has to be the goal in East Lansing.
