For many, spring football is in the rearview mirror and it’s time for college football fans to begin looking ahead to the fall. That includes us fellow Spartans, with Michigan State completing its spring practice session this past weekend.
With Michigan State wrapping up spring ball, we can start to look ahead to the 2023 season and review the upcoming slate — which is considered one of the hardest in the country. Michigan State will face at least four preseason top 25 teams next year, including the likes of Ohio State, Penn State, Washington and rival Michigan. Add in a pair of tough road trips to Minnesota and Iowa, and we are looking at quite a daunting schedule in 2023.
So how does the Spartans’ schedule stack up in terms of their chances to win each game? I have taken a stab at placing each game into a toughness tier ranging from expected to win to toss-up to very unlikely we see a Spartans victory.
