Michigan and Michigan State will meet for the 104th time Saturday in East Lansing.

The Wolverines enter the game unbeaten and hold a higher national ranking, but the Spartans have won three straight in the series. A win Saturday would mark the first four-game winning streak for Michigan State in this storied rivalry since 1959-62.

Michigan coach Brady Hoke, along with seniors Ryan Van Bergen and David Molk, spoke about what the rivalry means during a Monday press conference.
