Michigan State has not drawn the headlines that Michigan has this offseason, but that does not mean that the Wolverines have suddenly jumped ahead of the Spartans in any pecking order in terms of on-field performance heading into 2015. 

So if you needed any reminder, Michigan State has driven the point home with its Cotton Bowl rings. In addition to the score of the Cotton Bowl win against Baylor, the rings have the 35-11 score from the Spartans' win over the Wolverines in October.
