East Lansing — As Michigan State defensive lineman Lawrence Thomas stood before the media on Saturday evening, he let a little smile sneak out.
The fifth-year senior was asked about his team being 8-0 and a perfect 4-0 in the Big Ten heading into the bye week after a 52-26 victory over Indiana.
“It feels great,” Thomas said, the smile spreading. “There’s nothing like being undefeated. We have to keep on going one game at a time.”
That statement probably summed up No. 6 Michigan State perfectly this season. The Spartans are unbeaten, but it’s been a challenge every week.
