A room full of rivalry trophies- for how much longer?

With victories over Notre Dame, Indiana and Michigan this season, Michigan State was able to grab hold of all four rivalry trophies for the first time since 1999. Of course, a loss to Penn State this weekend will leave the Land Grant Trophy in Happy Valley for the next year.

Unfortunately, I’m not able to find any photos of the trophies together at the Skandalaris Center, so here are individual images.

    This is kind of a “Tiger Slam” if we don’t beat Penn State.
