The mood here on campus is definitely one of anticipation. Every person I've talked to is extraordinarily excited about the game, and with the battle that awaits on Saturday, I wouldn't have it any other way. In my opinon, the Spartans' upcoming contest is one of the bigger games in coach Mark Dantonio's career here. This game has major Big Ten title race implications, as an early loss to either side would damage their chances for the rest of the way, particulary with an upcoming Spartan slate that includes Iowa.
Kirk Cousins and the rest of the Spartans said all the right things during press conferences this week, and I've included the link to some of Cousins' Tuesday comments here: http://ow.ly/2P6UD
If coach Dantonio continues to call on Cousins to mix in as much play action as they have in the past 2 weeks,we'll be able to affectively freeze the Michigan linebackers and secondary, and even if Dantonio choses to pound the ball frequently, I believe that over time, our smashmouth style of play will wear Michigan down.
Until the Spartans enter the Big House on Saturday, we'll have to wait and see, and in the meantime, the anticipation will continue to build..
