Defense team ranking:
pts/game....MSU-41st, UM-9th
yds/game...MSU-37, UM-2
Pass yds/game...MSU-118, UM-1
Rush yds/game...MSU-1, UM-15
Interceptions...MSU-13, UM-30
Sacks...MSU-65, UM-12
AVG...MSU 46th, UM 12th

Offensive team ranking:
Pts/game...MSU 85th, UM-23rd
Yards gained...MSU-80, UM-52
Pass Yds/game...MSU 34th, UM 94th
Rush Yds/game...MSU 115, UM-28th
AVG...MSU 78th, UM 49th

We rate better for both defense(12th vs 46th) and offense(49th vs 78th)
Not saying this guarantees anything, but sure looks to me like the Dantonio factor is overplayed this year.
good guys 24, bad guys 14
