PREGAME
Before we get to football, let’s say congratulations to MSU Women’s Soccer who advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament with a 3-2 overtime win against Texas earlier today. Mackenzie Anthony scored the game winner for the Spartans in the third minute of the sudden death OT. Michigan State will now play top seeded Duke, which beat Texas Tech 3-0 today.
On to football, where there was unfortunate news with the release of MSU’s pre-game availability report. Charles Brantley, who was injured against Indiana and did not play at Illinois, is now listed as out for the season.
