The 2018 schedule has plenty of difficult game, but the Spartans are no stranger to the big stage and playing under pressure. Michigan State has made a name for itself in the Mark Dantonio era by thriving in key games, such as versus Michigan, Ohio State, Iowa, Wisconsin and Penn State multiple times.
Even non-conference games over the years against Oregon, Boise State, Notre Dame, Georgia, Stanford and Baylor have gone the Spartans’ way.
While the 2018 schedule may not be the toughest in the Big Ten, it does feature matchups with the Big Ten East’s top dogs.
