Every game Michigan State football played against Michigan under Mark Dantonio proved to be competitive, even during the Spartans’ worst season.
Until last year.
The Wolverines drumbeat MSU, 44-10, the worst loss to Michigan in Dantonio’s 13-year tenure, and the only time Michigan beat him in two straight games.
Exit Dantonio, enter Mel Tucker.
The Spartans’ new coach has his work cut out for him when he and his team travel to Michigan Stadium. Odds are heavily tilted toward the 13th-ranked Wolverines, a 24½-point favorite going into Saturday.
