EAST LANSING – This can’t be what Michigan State’s program is.
I’m sure Mark Dantonio and his staff know it. But that doesn’t make it OK.
This is maddening football. Low-level stuff. Undisciplined, predictable, self-destroying, lacking the talent and execution to put away a team that was expecting to be put away. As one semi-regular MSU football onlooker said in a text message while sitting through it Saturday: “It’s really amazingly bad.”
That goes for Michigan State and Maryland. That’s MSU’s level on the last day of the 2019 season — the same ugly sentence with 3-9 Maryland, which hadn’t led a game in a month and had been outscored 217-38 in its last four games.
