Dantonio Quietly Building; Stays Usual Course
You'll have to excuse Mark Dantonio if he shys away from the spotlight; it's just not his style. He prefers the calm and quiet and that's just how he's building Michigan State. While you won't find Dantonio as a regular on the front pages or on national magazine covers he is making waves to be noticed. Dantonio has silently built MSU's best football recruiting class in recent memory and it is expected to expand. The 2016 class is heading for a consensus top ten finish with a chance to crack the top five; up there with the likes of Alabama and Ohio State. It's new territory for the Spartans, but do not expect the new position to be fumbled. Nor can it be labeled as a fluke.

2015 Cotton Bowl: The MSU Enigma
As the old saying goes, "Adversity doesn't build character, it reveals it." No saying, proverb, or maxim could hold truer for the 2015 Cotton Bowl. Michigan State was long gone, MIA, dead, buried, and non-existent from the second quarter until just after half-way through the third quarter. The Spartans were resurrected by the book of Dantonio and showed a resiliency they've embodied all year. Down twenty points in the fourth quarter the Spartans battled all the way back to beat Baylor 42-41, in a game that will go down in Spartan lore......http://paulbunyannation.blogspot.com/2015/01/2015-cotton-bowl-msu-enigma.html

MSU Cotton Bowl: Help Wanted
Baylor 24, Michigan State 14
As the clock hits zero at Jerry's World in the Cotton Bowl, the story line for the Spartans is the same as it has been in big games. The offense was hot to start, then frozen. The defense brought up third downs but couldn't get Baylor off the field, they get tired and boom it's 24-14 Baylor at half....http://paulbunyannation.blogspot.com/2015/01/msu-cotton-bowl-help-wanted.html

2015 Cotton Bowl Preview
January 1, 2014 was an unprecedented day in Spartan lore. As the boys in green and white stepped onto manicured grass at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, they left their mark on Spartan Nation for years to come. One year later the eighth-ranked Spartans have a chance to leave another mark. While the Cotton Bowl is not the Rose Bowl nor the College Football Playoff, the Spartans have the opportunity to show they are among the nation's best teams. A showdown with the Bears of Baylor in Arlington, Texas today can provide another example of why the Spartans deserve the national spotlight....http://paulbunyannation.blogspot.com/2015/01/2015-cotton-bowl-preview.html

New Look
For those of you who followed The "Original" Conference Gazette well this is it now. I've changed the name and the things I cover. Now it's all about Michigan and Michigan State. For my schedule, trying to cover all 14 teams was becoming too hard. Focusing now on the two teams I know best I'll be able to bring better writing to the sports table. This blog will mainly focus on the two Big Ten teams in the Great Lakes State. I hope any of you who followed along will still stick around now especially if you are a fan of MSU or U of M.....http://paulbunyannation.blogspot.com/2014/12/new-look.html

MSU Is Still B1G Favorite
Now that all but two teams have played at least 3 conference games, Contenders, Pretenders, and the No-Shots emerge. Often there is one clear favorite and this case is no different. Flat out, Michigan State should win this conference. They've been the most consistent team week in and week out. Though they are the favorite, the Spartans must compete with a few contenders in the East looking to book a trip to Indianapolis. The West offers a couple as well looking to capture a spot in Lucas Oil Stadium and upset the Spartans....http://paulbunyannation.blogspot.com/2014/10/msu-is-still-b1g-favorite.html

Hate Week: A Feud That Splits Family. A MSU vs UM Story & Why It's Personal
Let's get two things straight. The hate that spews from the pores of Spartan and Wolverine fans a like is not contained in one week nor can it be contained. If you hail from the Great Lakes State you probably have family that has attended either school and no first hand the revelry that come with this rivalry.....http://paulbunyannation.blogspot.com/2014/10/hate-week-feud-that-splits-family-msu.html
