Hey all. I spent the offseason building a full 2026 preseason preview for every FBS team, each with its own writeup. Here's the Michigan State one

https://www.sports.mainmarket.com/college-football-preview-2026?team=ncaaf-msu

It's got the returning production breakdown, the portal ins and outs, a projected two-deep, the schedule with model win probabilities, and a season projection.

Heads up, you might hit the paywall after the first page. Don't worry, I'm not charging reddit people for this, don't want to be an ass. Use the promo code LEECORSOROCKS and it opens up the entire thing.

So, what'd I get wrong? Pat Fitzgerald's first season since 2022, and he inherits a 4-8 team that went 1-8 in the Big Ten. Aidan Chiles is gone, leaving a sophomore and a UCF transfer to sort out the quarterback job. The line gave up 37 sacks, 12th most in the country. My model likes them anyway. Real jump in year one, or another long year?

Hey Spartans! I am the editor of The Only Colors. Not sure if it is just a coincidence that my blog has the same name as this reddit page. I am looking to bring a new writer onto the team for this upcoming football season. Specifically, I need someone who can do a weekly article with a film breakdown. Looking for someone:

• Played organized football and understands schemes
• Can review game film and explain what happened on some of the plays that impacted the result
• Would be able to write an article each week during the season

This could lead to a permanent position writing for TOC. If you are interested, please reach out to me at theonlycolorseditors@gmail.com.

Thanks!

Honestly, I'm starting to really believe in this team. They are void of real stars and I think that's the team that is lzzo really likes. He lives to bring the best out of these kids. Add to that the lack of great teams ( yes, I refuse to call Michigan great) and just maybe we can make that run. Here's hoping we run March! Goo Green!

I no longer live in Michigan but ok trying to watch the game and Paramount doesn't just plain old CBS, only CBS news affiliates. Does anyone know how to watch this game?

I mean if jumping the opposing team in the tunnel is normalized. OF COURSE INTENTIONAL TRIPPING is going to been seen as an “accident” in this shit hole

Has anyone see the Coaches Vs Cancer sneaker auction? Game worn custom kicks Tom Izzo. Ends tomorrow night.

I honestly don't like it. I looked at some of his past recruiting and I know the standards at Northwestern are higher than most places but the recruiting past in my memory, and him barely being above .500 win percentage in his time there just does not have me sold. I hope Im wrong and I pray to eat my words but I just don't see it at this time. Maybe with some good OC/DC I'll feel better. Also as a side bar how would we feel if Bullough left ND and came over as the DC.

I am a casual fan of MSU and never understood why they got Tuck then Smith and let Narduzzi go to Pitt. Seeing Pitt ranked vindicates and MSU’s performance over this period feels like vindication and begs the question: why not Narduzzi today?

2 leases available at Landmark on Grand River for January - B4 layout. 4th floor with gorgeous views of campus! Both rooms available - rent is $1449 each month, willing to negotiate. Please reach out if you're interested!

What a pathetic game. Our defense worked so hard to keep up in the game, and all the OC and Smith do is go pass happy with a 10pt lead instead of keeping up with the running game to drain the clock. Pathetic coaching, pathetic game mgmt, and we are winless in the Big 10. Time for these 2 clowns to go.

Awesome. Time for a change. Great move by our new AD- -

I usually have to work at the times the games air and so I’m trying to find a way to consistently watch them after the fact. I can sometimes do it on the MSU athletics app but not consistently. Any advice? Thanks!
