Notes & Quotes: Mel Tucker credits the fans “deep and thick” in the stands for helping Michigan State defeat Penn State

Spartan Stadium, also known as “The Woodshed,” was packed last night with hardy fans hoping to see the Michigan State Spartans beat the Penn State Nittany Lions for the Land Grant Trophy.

After a scoring play from quarterback Payton Thorne to wide receiver Jayden Reed on fourth-down-and-15 to essentially ice the game, Michigan State came out on top of Penn State. With a final score of MSU 30, PSU 27, the Land Grant Trophy was secured and senior day was a success for the players that took the field for the last time.
