Michigan State University ranked #2 in the state and #77 in the nation. MSU also has over 2,000 more acres than U of M, measuring a staggering 5,200 acres.

So U of M may claim to be Big Brother, but most 'Little Brothers' end up bigger than their older sibling. Michigan State University holds the title as Michigan's largest college campus.
