A gray skied day in East Lansing, Michigan late last October ended with the Michigan Wolverines losing their first game of the season. Michigan’s 30-14 lead over Michigan State turned into a 37-33 defeat.
Questionable officiating, a Michigan State running back in Kenneth Walker III who scored five touchdowns, multiple turnovers by Michigan, and a rowdy environment at Spartan Stadium all contributed to the Michigan State comeback.
“The way we lost sucked, and I think we’re going to definitely circle Michigan State this season,” quarterback Cade McNamara said, who threw for 383 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception versus MSU last year.
