This past week, I asked which of MSU’s 7 home games in 2026 you were most interested in attending. The least popular options were the home finale against Oregon (unsurprising as it is a Friday night game in November) and the mid-October tilt against Illinois (somewhat surprising as it is the homecoming game). The combo of our non-conference home games against Toledo and Eastern Michigan, which we had to pair due to a limit of 6 voting options, also did not gain much interest, nor did the final Saturday home game against Washington.
The second most votes went to game #4 against Nebraska, which is our Big Ten opener. And lastly, which comes as no surprise to me other than it only got 42% of the vote, is the Northwestern game. To explain why this won, look no further than what Izzo4POTUS (getting in the article 2 weeks in a row!) had to say:
Fall colors, playing his old team, our old QB, and a team we can beat – a great combo
Thank you to all who participated in this survey. As always, if you have a suggestion for a survey, please mention it in the comments.
This survey was sponsored by the folks over at FanDuel Sportsbook who have moved the spread down to 10.5 from 11.5 for our MSU Spartans in the season opener against Toledo.
