I must admit that I was very concerned about Michigan State University’s game on Saturday against the Penn State Nittany Lions. On Friday night, news was starting to leak out that multiple Spartans were slowed by a combination of illness and injuries. The point spread drifted Penn State’s direction all week. By kick-off, the Lions were favored by almost a touchdown. Even though we are well short of mid-winter, things looked bleak.
But, college football is a strange game and strange things were afoot across the nation this weekend. In the state of Michigan, snow was gently failing across the region.
