experience right up there with Wisconsin.
Plenty of camping nearby if you want to go to a game on the cheap, which we have done. We ended up camping about 45 minutes south in Northeastern Indiana at Pokagon State Park (click on "view College Football Trips in a larger map" link). My only complaint is that there is not a lot going on outside of the actual game. Not many places to go out for a beer especially for such a massive campus.
Don’t Miss: Top of the hour shot. Halftime show of the dogs catching Frisbees.
If you want to make it part of a larger trip: Quite a few great brewpubs within a couple of hours drive if you want to combine your football trip with a Beercation. Ann Arbor is nearby, Detroit isn't too far. Chicago is four hours away. Mackinaw Island and the UP are about six hours away.

Avoid: Trying to find a decent bar in East Lansing
