For the second consecutive year, Sparty is our pick to be the surprise of the Big 10. Always loaded with talent, Michigan State has been dubbed the Clemson of the Big 10 for their underachieving seasons. Talent returns on both sides of the ball this fall in East Lansing. Quarterback Kirk Cousins figues to mature after a decent 2009 season. All world linebacker Greg Jones leads a defense that could be tough to play against. In past seasons, MSU has fallen apart after difficult losses (see Iowa last year) and their seasons tend to spiral out of control. The non-conference schedule features a clash against Notre Dame however the other 3 games are cupcake city. The Spartans miss Ohio State and get Wisconsin at home. Michigan State will win 9 games this fall and land a nice bid to play in the Capital One Bowl.
