Last week, Spartan head coach Brent Brennan said the game against Colorado State (2-7, 2-3 MW) would be a four quarter affair.
“I think people In general on the outside are thinking, ‘Oh, I want to beat everybody 100-to-nothing’ but that’s just not football and it’s not real,” said Brennan on people’s fixation on point spreads.
Though heavily favored Spartans (6-2, 4-1 MW) did grind out a 28-16 win, it wasn’t in any way easy. In fact, looking at the numbers, it was downright weird.
“The fact we’ve had games like these where we have to find a way where it didn’t look good,” said Brennan.
