On Saturday, ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit thinks this year's most improved is Michigan State who remains undefeated...
quote:(The Spun)
“There’s not a more-improved team in the country than Michigan State,” Herbstreit said, via 247Sports. “Last year, offensively, scored 18 points a game. This year, averaging 36 points a game. Defensively, they gave up 35 points a game a year ago. And now, they’re only giving up 19. So they have completely reversed their fortunes on both sides of football. They’re aggressive, showing all that skill, I think Payton Thorne’s ability at the quarterback position.
“This team — when you come into a year, nobody’s expecting anything, all of a sudden, you find a way to win one, you find a way to win another one. Next thing you know, you’re ranked in the top 10. They’re starting to believe. And now, they’ve become a legitimate (contender).”
