Michigan State football adds three future home games with Central Michigan

What could go wrong?

Michigan State football has announced three future home games with Central Michigan in the years 2023, 2027, and 2030.

The Spartans will host the Chippewas in Spartan Stadium to open the 2023 season on Sept. 2. In addition, the two schools announced future dates in 2027 (Sept. 11) and 2030 (Aug. 31).

MSU leads the all-time series against CMU, 8-3. The Spartans have won four straight against the Chippewas and won the last meeting between the two schools in 2018, 31-20, in Spartan Stadium. CMU’s most recent victory in the series came in 2009 at Spartan Stadium.

The Celebrate State Football Series, which featured ten games between MSU and the three FBS directional schools from 2011-19, has concluded. It was originally supposed to feature three games against each of Central, Western, and Eastern Michigan, with each school hosting the Spartans at home once. However, two of Eastern Michigan’s games, including MSU’s visit to Ypsilanti, were changed due to their being no guaranteed money for EMU going to East Lansing. The Spartans won in Mount Pleasant in 2012.
