Michigan State football has risen to the top 10 of college football after a 6-0 start. The Spartans defeated Rutgers 31-13 on Saturday, powered by stellar performances from Kenneth Walker III and Jalen Nailor, to remain undefeated this season. MSU looks to take advantage of losses by top 4 teams Alabama and Penn State.
