Michigan State will head back to a New Year’s Six bowl game next year, according to Brad Crawford of 247Sports.
Crawford released his way-too-early bowl projections for the College Football Playoff and New Year’s Six bowl games next year, and the Spartans cracked his list. He has Michigan State heading to the Orange Bowl for a fun matchup against the Clemson Tigers.
Here’s a bit of what Crawford had to say about the Spartans:
Michigan State got great news earlier this month with wideout Jayden Reed and safety Xavier Henderson announcing their return as top veterans and as long as the Spartans can patch up talent losses along the offensive line and defensive backfield, they’re going to finish near the top of the Big Ten.
Based on these projections, Crawford has Ohio State as his Big Ten champ and earning a spot in the College Football Playoff, and Michigan landing in the Rose Bowl as the assumed runner-up in the Big Ten East Division.
