Michigan Football: Wolverines should be wary of desperate Spartans

We all remember how good it felt when Michigan football knocked off Michigan State last season to bring home the Paul Bunyan Trophy.

That win on the road versus the Spartans was one of the biggest for Jim Harbaugh during his five seasons at Michigan football and a win Saturday against Michigan State, which would be his third would be just as huge.

That’s because it would feel like a death knell for Mark Dantonio, at least in terms of this rivalry.

Harbaugh wasn’t able to beat Urban Meyer and his record has been pretty even against both James Franklin and Paul Chryst.
