The Athletic leaves Spartans off preseason bowl projections

The Athletic does not have Michigan State bowling in 2024

The Athletic does not have Michigan State bowling in 2024.

Scott Dochterman and Stewart Mandel of The Athletic released their preseason bowl projections this week, and they don’t have the Spartans in a bowl game this year. This has become a common prediction as The Action Network and ESPN also left the Spartans out of their preseason bowl projections.

Michigan State is coming off a 4-8 season and has missed out on reaching a bowl game in each of the last two seasons. New head coach Jonathan Smith is looking to right the ship, though, and get the Spartans back in the postseason this year.

Michigan State leading returning wide receiver Montorie Foster was banged up earlier in fall camp but it was reported last week that he’ll be fine to go for the season opener.

Kickoff between the Owls and Spartans is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET on Friday. The game will be televised on the Big Ten Network.

Former Spartan player has extremely high expectations for MSU in 2024

One former MSU player has made it known that he has extremely high expectations for year one under Jonathan Smith

One former Michigan State player has made it known that he has extremely high expectations for year one under Jonathan Smith.

Matt Seybert — who was a tight end at Michigan State from 2017 – 2019 — believes Michigan State should be in the College Football Playoff this year. He posted on X that he likes the combination of the new coaching staff and transfer quarterback Aidan Chiles, and that’ll drive the Spartans into the new 12-team College Football Playoff in 2024.

Check out his post below:

For perspective, Michigan State has a win total over-under that ranges from 4.5 to 5.5 depending on the sports book. So not many out there have the same high expectations for Michigan State as Seybert.
