Our Countdown2Kickoff Road2Tampa series continues with the Michigan State Spartans...Three Big 10 Championships, 5 ten win seasons, and then the Spartans dropped a dud in the CFB Playoffs. In spite of the Spartans success they continue to be overlooked and dismissed. Although there was a mass exodus due to graduation, there are talented 4* star talents waiting to replace their former 2* counterparts.

Mark Dantonoio, has won titles with far lesser talent, and although the current Spartans may lack house hold names that may all change at season's end.

Each day we grow closer to week 1 and each we grow closer to several unfortunate coaches last day on the job. We discuss the coaching hot seat as well as the new guys brought to resurrect once proud problems. How many wins will save a job? How many loses will cost an HC their job?
