That one was...rough. Michigan State and Ohio State faced off on Saturday, and the Spartans were flat out embarrassed by the Buckeyes. Justin Fields and company walloped the Spartans with a final score of 52-12, but it wasn’t even that close.
Head Coach Mel Tucker said postgame that this is not the result he wants, and he’s “going to be sick” looking back on the film from Saturday’s game. It was a complete dismantling of the Spartans, and their worst loss against the Buckeyes since 2017, where they lost 48-3.
But, with a day to, as linebacker Antjuan Simmons put it, let the loss “marinate,” what can we take away from the performance against the no.
