S&P+ now has MSU #4 in defense, #115 in offense.
For comparison, 2012 was #2 and #89. Oddly that 7-6 team was #15 overall in S&P+. I want to say 5 of their 6 losses we're by 6 points to or less, so maybe luck factor wasn't in their favor, because that seems REALLY high for a 7-6 team in a year I don't recall the Big Ten being particularly strong.
This year #31 overall, which actually ahead of some ranked teams like Texas, Kentucky and Syracuse
