Michigan State football takes on Ohio State at The Horseshoe. These two teams play each other well and this has been considered a rivalry game, by some.
Michigan State takes on Ohio State Saturday and again the race for the East division will likely be decided between these two teams. When James Franklin and Jim Harbaugh got hired a few years ago, there was an ESPN writer who claimed that the days of Michigan State’s dominance in the Big Ten was over.
The Spartans had a nice run, but these two power coaches would be the ones deciding Big Ten championships. Yet here we are another year into their tenures and both the Nittany Lions and Wolverines are out of contention.
Michigan State just keeps on winning, beating the teams it needs to. Ohio State will be ready for the Spartans, however, Michigan State is ready as well.
Head coach Mark Dantonio has already said that the Spartans have had a good week of practice. There are 26 players from the state of Ohio and no doubt they will be ready to face the school they grew up hearing all about.
Here is a look back at five of the best games between these two teams.
