Columbus, Ohio — There was no talk of contracts Saturday morning.
Michigan State coach Mel Tucker’s focus was solely on the No. 7 Spartans’ noon showdown with No. 4 Ohio State at Ohio Stadium.
MSU is expected to offer Tucker a 10-year, $95 million contract extension soon.
In a game Michigan State (9-1, 6-1 Big Ten) enters as a nearly 20-point underdog with the Big Ten East potentially on the line, Tucker said his team is ready for the moment.
“It makes sense to them,” Tucker told ESPN’s Holly Rowe.
