Michigan State football ranks top 25 nationally entering 2011

With the spring game 2 days away, and it looks like sunny skies with 65 weather (beauty!), I need to post how the Big Green Machine ranks looking toward the fall.

Mind you, the ES will post a more extensive listing here by Mid-May, but thanks to my bro out in Chi-town, he notes MSU's national prowess (despite our being thumped by 'Bama). And, yes, this is all football, NOT men's hoops:

It's nearly May - we're 4 months and 5 days away from opening kickoff for MSU. Here's a quick glance of preseason rankings via a quick google search:

www.bleacherreport.com - MSU #10 (2nd in B1G behind Nebraska, #1 Oklahoma)
collegefootball.about.com - MSU #14 (4th in B1G behind OSU, Nebraska and Wisc, #1 Oregon)
collegefootballcafeteria.com - MSU #13 (3rd B1G behind OSU and Wisc, #1 Oklahoma)
fftoolbox.com - MSU #25 (B1G behind everyone, #1 'Bama)
espn.com - MSU #16 (3rd in B1G behind OSU and Wis, #1 Oklahoma)
nationalchamps.net - MSU #12 (2nd in B1G behind OSU, #1 Oklahoma)
sbnation.com - MSU #10 (2nd in B1G behind Nebraska, #1 Oklahoma)

Our first game is against Youngstown State (no, that isn't a typo) on 03 September.
