The MSU football team (2-6, 0-5 Big Ten) dropped their sixth straight loss –– this one arguably the most devastating as No. 2 Michigan (8-0, 5-0 Big Ten) came into Spartan Stadium and left with a 32-23 victory, taking the Paul Bunyan trophy back to Ann Arbor with them.
U-M was a 24.5 point favorite over the Spartans heading into the contest, and MSU kept themselves in it, mounting a 4th quarter comeback that fell just short. MSU now will look to next week when they battle Illinois on the road, still in search of the inches they can’t find as well as their first Big Ten win.
