LOL at @OrdinaryDO who a year ago at this time was trashing his school because he didn't get an interview and "it only accepts minorities and low stat applicants" and now tries to act like it isn't going to limit him or every student compared to MD students. If the first years knew who he was he would probably be shunned for what he said last year and now he acts like he is going to kill everything in medical school if he gets through the masters program. Don't listen to this guy.
OP go MD unless you hate the MD schools you get into and like MSU that much more. I love my DO school, but I recognize that it limits my potential. Throw yourself a bone and don't do that to yourself if you have the choice. For example, I have found in medical school that I REALLY love teaching others. So academic medicine grows more and more of interest every day. However, there aren't as many opportunities for DO's to practice academic medicine. I would have never imagined I would be interested in academics, this is an example of why going MD is better even though you are "sure" you wanna do OB. However, I don't doubt you could achieve your goals from MSU, you just might have to work a little harder.
