If Michigan State is in line to play for a championship, basketball legend Magic Johnson will be there.

In the spring, Magic followed the Spartans during their unexpected run to the Final Four. Now, he's doing same for Mark Dantonio's team. He and his wife, Cookie, were at the Cotton Bowl for Thursday's second College Football Playoff game.

The Spartans opened as 9.5 point underdogs against Alabama. Maybe Magic's presence give them a boost.
