It really doesn’t get much worse than what we witnessed at Spartan Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Spartans were in a must-win situation to realistically reach bowl eligibility and let a 17-point second-half lead slip away. Even worse, Michigan State had a chance to win the game in regulation on a last-second 22-yard field goal but it was no good.
The loss will be one that’ll surely haunt Michigan State fans, but how far does it result in the Spartans dropping in our power rankings? See where I rank Michigan State and the rest of the Big Ten teams in this week’s Big Ten power rankings:
