Saturday’s Michigan State football game is one of the most important of the 2016 season. While it may not seem like that since BYU is just a 2-3 opponent, the Spartans are facing a world of adversity after dropping a second straight game last week.
The Spartans, especially Tyler O’Connor, have been slandered by the media and even their own fans, but Mark Dantonio will have this team turned around in no time. Taking a break from Big Ten play might seem like a negative, but the Spartans are 0-2 in conference play and might need a confidence boost before getting back into it again.
