Spartan Future Looks Bright
Posted on 10 Jan 2011 by David Lesmeister.
The Michigan State football team ended their season on a sour note, losing to Alabama 49-7 in the Capital One Bowl on New Year’s Day. Despite this, it was a very successful season in which the Spartans accomplished things that have not been done in a very long time. MSU won eleven games for the first time in the program’s history, as this was only the third time the Spartans have reached th...

Spartans Go For Share Of Big Ten Title
Posted on 24 Nov 2010 by David Lesmeister.
Tenth ranked Michigan State visits Happy Valley this weekend with a share of the Big Ten Title on the line. The Spartans have never beaten Penn State away from East Lansing, so the task ahead for MSU will be a tough one. It is a different experience for Michigan State, considering they have not been in this situation of playing for a Big Ten Championship this late in the season since 1990. I re...

Michigan State Vs. Iowa Preview
Posted on 27 Oct 2010 by David Lesmeister.
Fifth Ranked Michigan State will travel to Kinnick Stadium this weekend to take on the eighteenth ranked Iowa Hawkeyes. MSU is coming off of a dramatic 4th quarter comeback victory against Northwestern, while Iowa is coming off of a gut-wrenching loss at home to Wisconsin. This game is very, very important to both teams, as the Spartans sit atop the Big Ten standings as the lone undefeated team...

Letdown in East Lansing
Posted on 2 Oct 2010 by Chad Seely.
Typical Badger team to lay an egg when the nation is watching in a primetime, big-time football game. I posed the question in my season preview of can the Badgers FINALLY win these football games and get over the hump to join the Big Ten elite once again? Apparently not. I wouldn't go as far to say the Spartans dominated in their 34-24 victory over Wisconsin, but they were in control of t...

Week 5: Wisconsin @ Michigan State
Posted on 29 Sep 2010 by Chad Seely.
It's put up or shut up time for the Wisconsin Badgers (4-0, No. 9 USA Today/No. 11 AP). Non-conference football games are done and that means on to the big boys of the Big Ten. The Badgers will be tested right out of the gate as they travel to East Lansing to take on a tough Michigan State Spartan squad (4-0, No. 21 USA Today/No. 24 AP) at 2:30 for both teams' Big Ten opener. Michigan Sta...

Spartans Begin Season 4-0
Posted on 25 Sep 2010 by David Lesmeister.
The defense got the Spartans off to a quick start in the first quarter with a great one handed interception by LB Greg Jones. He read the play, jumped underneath the route, picked off the pass and returned it to the Northern Colorado 4 yard line. It only took MSU one play to punch it in after the turnover, as Edwin Baker scored from 4 yards out. The two teams then traded punts and MSU continu...

Notre Dame vs Michigan St. Preview
Posted on 16 Sep 2010 by Tim Lewis.
There is only one way to get over a heartbreaking defeat at home. Make up for it by winning the next game on the road. Brian Kelly's Irish begin a make or break four game stretch on Saturday night in East Lansing that will go a long way towards determining their postseason fate. They face a 2-0, yet unimpressive, Michigan State team that will be looking for revenge after last year's 33-...

Jaguar Football: Next Stop, San Diego
Posted on 15 Sep 2010 by Scott Janovitz.
Last Wednesday we discussed how favorable a matchup Denver was for Jacksonville, and things pretty much worked out accordingly, as the Jags walked away from the showdown victorious, 24-17 (By the way, in that same conversation I predicted a 20-17 JVille victory. Not too far off, I’d say). And though Jacksonville won’t be so strategically fortunate this Sunday when it travel...

Michigan State vs. Notre Dame Preview
Posted on 14 Sep 2010 by David Lesmeister.
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish visit East Lansing this weekend to take on the Spartans in their ritual night game at Spartan Stadium. Michigan State will be looking to avenge a tough loss from last year in this rivalry, which snapped a 2 game win streak for the Spartans. MSU comes into the game at 2-0, but have not looked all that impressive and Notre Dame comes in at 1-1, after a heartbreaking ...

Spartans Run Wild vs. Broncos
Posted on 6 Sep 2010 by David Lesmeister.
It was opening weekend for college football and the Spartans of Michigan State opened with a convincing 38-14 victory over Western Michigan University. They got off to a sluggish start, but eventually took the game over in the 2nd quarter and cruised to a win. Edwin Baker got the Spartans on the board in the first quarter with a 28 yard touchdown run. MSU established the run early, while Kirk C...

Game 1 Preview: MSU vs. WMU
Posted on 30 Aug 2010 by David Lesmeister.
The college football season kicks off this Saturday, as Michigan State welcomes Western Michigan to East Lansing. I have been waiting impatiently for this day to come because I am so sick of watching ESPN and hearing about what LeBron James had for dinner or what Brett Favre is doing in Mississippi, while retiring or not retiring, again and again. This season is a welcomed breath of fresh air a...
