EAST LANSING, Mich. — Colorado junior Rachel Rosen will take a minute to soak in her surroundings when the No. 19 Buffaloes take on Michigan State on Sunday (11 a.m. MT/B1G+).
Rosen had never been to Michigan before the team's trip this week, but the Hermosa Beach, Calif., native has a unique connection to the state and the Spartans in particular.
Billy Wells, Rosen's grandfather, was a star halfback for the Spartans from 1951-53. He scored 15 rushing touchdowns and still ranks 13th in Spartan history with 5.39 yards per carry.
