Michigan State defense makes it two straight wins against Spartans' offense in spring scrimmages

EAST LANSING -- Michigan State's defense made it two wins in a row over the offense, and the Spartans did it by intercepting quarterback Connor Cook twice for the second week in a row.

Cornerback Jermaine Edmondson's interception sealed a 33-31 win at Spartan Stadium, according to a Saturday afternoon school release.

Edmondson is competing for a starting job in the secondary, hoping to maintain the momentum he carried out of the Spartans' Cotton Bowl win when he recovered an onside kick in the fourth quarter.

FWAA Freshman All-American defensive tackle Malik McDowell was also credited with an interception, one week after his fourth-down stop kept Madre London out of the end zone in the Friday, April 10 scrimmage, and led to the defense's win.
