Piscataway, N.J. — A nearly two-month drought finally ended for Michigan State on Saturday.
Behind a career-high 11 catches and three touchdown receptions from junior Cody White, Michigan State ended a five-game skid by knocking off Rutgers, 27-0, at SHI Stadium on Saturday to move one win from becoming bowl eligible.
It was the first win for Michigan State (5-6, 3-5 Big Ten) since the 40-31 victory over Indiana on Sept. 28. The Spartans now must beat Maryland next week in the season finale to earn a spot in a bowl game.
White gained 136 yards receiving and scored on passes of 17, 16 and 7 yards.
