Welcome back to the Top 25, Spartan fans.

After an upset 14-10 win over then-No. 7 Michigan, voters showed some love for MSU. The Amway Coaches Poll has MSU ranked at No. 22, receiving 261 points. The Wolverines slid all the way down to No. 16.



In the AP poll, the Spartans are ranked as the No. 21 team in the nation, earning 416 points. In the past, they received one vote up until their loss to Notre Dame. That's no longer the case.

Elsewhere around the Big Ten in the AP poll, Penn State comes in at No. 3, Ohio State at No. 9 and Wisconsin at No. 7. The Wolverines fell to No. 17.

The Spartans travel to Minnesota next Saturday to take on the Golden Gophers in another Big Ten matchup. Kickoff for that game is 8 p.m.
