Vote on Michigan State Football's Mount Rushmore to be on the Big Ten Network!

As I mentioned last week, all of the SB Nation Big Ten blogs are teaming up with the Big Ten Network for fans to vote on who should be on their schools' respective Mount Rushmores of football. We had a lot of good discussion, and we can finally release the 10-player list from the BTN. Here's a reminder of the rules:

Football only.

Former student-athletes only.

On-field accomplishments while in college only.

Particular student-athletes were removed from consideration due to off-field activity and/or criminal activity.

As a reminder, here's a list of accomplishments of the 10 candidates. The MSU episode will air Thursday, December 18th at 6 PM Eastern. We'll have our recommendations in the days to come, but for now, vote and discuss in the comments!
