The final score for most of Michigan State football’s early games made the games seem was closer than the games actually were. The exact opposite happened on Saturday when a close game against Indiana became a blowout with a 52-26 win.
Michigan State was favored by more than two touchdowns going into the weekend and halfway through the fourth quarter it didn’t look like it would cover the point spread. A 24-0 scoring spurt to end the game meant the Spartans covered for the second weekend in a row after failing to cover in their first six contests.
