Motivated by a streaking run of four bowl wins since 2012, including a thrilling come-from-behind win over the Baylor Bears in the 2015 Cotton Classic Bowl, the Michigan State Spartans are high on confidence as they enter the new college football season.And judging by how they’ve been impressive over the recent years, you wouldn’t really blame the Spartan nation for being stupefied with the prospects of more success in this year’s NCAAF odds. I mean, the Spartans have claimed at least 11 wins in four out of its last seasons, won the Big 10 title in the 2013 season (a year they went on to finish No. 3 nationally), and commendably participated in two January Bowls over the last two seasons, winning both games in astounding fashion.So although much of the recent public spotlight in the Big 10 has been mostly focused in the direction of the Ohio State Buckeyes, and rightfully so after they won the National Championship earlier this year, the Spartans equally have a lot to offer.
