If Michigan State can win at Iowa next Saturday, the expectation is for the Spartans to inch toward the top 10. It might take another win later in the month for them to break into the top 10 even with a victory at Iowa, but the Spartans are in good shape both on the national stage and in the Big Ten after what happened on Saturday.
