Michigan State did not play this past week.

While the Spartans were off, they were preparing to face their archrival, Michigan, this upcoming week. With both teams 7-0, this has the makings of one of the best games of the season in all of college football.

Michigan State has performed well this year on both sides of the ball, but especially on offense. Running back Kenneth Walker is a legitimate Heisman candidate and quarterback Payton Thorne is having a break-out season.

A win on Saturday will give the Spartans the attention of the whole country.
