So McNeese State would be up 21-7 by this point?
September 7th, 2013 at 2:30 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:30 PM ^
Oh wow, this is all that I imagined it would be, this game. Michigan State has a 7-3 lead with a shade over 2 minutes left in the half thanks only to Shilique Calhoun and his ability to scoop things.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:37 PM ^
Especially after the Bulls got hammered by McNeese State. I figured even Sparty would have 20 by now. Their defense is really good, but there's no way they can hold everyone scoreless or count on 7 to 14 easy points from them.
They should end up with a losing record in conference again and a loss to Notre Dame.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:33 PM ^
in a dogfight against a team blown out by McNeese St. Nice
September 7th, 2013 at 2:35 PM ^
Cook was just crushed.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:35 PM ^
State should just go buy 5 traffic barrels from MDot, same level of protection, but no risk of holding calls.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:37 PM ^
USF's line is also godawful, they have 2 offensive linemen vs 1 defensive linemen there as the QB goes for the corner, and the QB still has to throw it away.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:39 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:39 PM ^
This is just terrible football.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:41 PM ^
That's a fumble right there.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:42 PM ^
SPARTY NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
September 7th, 2013 at 2:42 PM ^
Miami game is interesting, at least.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:42 PM ^
Man, I can't wait to play Sparty this year!
September 7th, 2013 at 2:44 PM ^
UM don't you?
September 7th, 2013 at 2:56 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:43 PM ^
[Edit: Double post... Apologies.]
September 7th, 2013 at 2:42 PM ^
HAHAHAHA after the fumble was announced the DJ played radioactive with the lyrics "welcome to the new age"
September 7th, 2013 at 2:42 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:43 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:44 PM ^
The Pass interfence is nice, but the dumb USF QB still threw into clear double coverage...
September 7th, 2013 at 2:44 PM ^
Eveld breaks the pocket even when he has tons of time. Weird.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:44 PM ^
1-12 USF QB. Gosh 2 of the worst offenses ever.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:45 PM ^
Was one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:45 PM ^
Turf Monster got him.
Bobby Eveld is, um, not an All-American.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:46 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:45 PM ^
LOL COACH DANTONIO- thank for the TIMEOUT BABY. SPARTANNNNNNNNS LIVE
September 7th, 2013 at 2:45 PM ^
Dantonio has officially lost his marbles.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:45 PM ^
Sparty NOOOO!
September 7th, 2013 at 2:45 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:46 PM ^
Somebody please cut together a highlight/gag reel of the MSU x USF Looney Tunes match-up. I mean, this shit is just straight comedy.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:56 PM ^
Go SparTOONS!
September 7th, 2013 at 2:46 PM ^
We are under 2 yards per attempt passing for the two teams combined. 8-26 for 50 yards.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:46 PM ^
Dantonio is a fool. Why call TO there?
September 7th, 2013 at 2:46 PM ^
We should beat them by 30
September 7th, 2013 at 2:46 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:46 PM ^
The only time when a Michigan State game will be easy to watch is when they get destroyed by Michigan this year. They are simply brutal.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:47 PM ^
September 7th, 2013 at 2:47 PM ^
In all seriousness, Dantonio strikes me as a bright guy. What about Jim Bollman's tenure at OSU made him think he should hire The Walrus?
September 7th, 2013 at 2:48 PM ^
He owed Tressel some favors I assume. Just like how Carr rehired certain folks and all that.
September 7th, 2013 at 3:03 PM ^
FIne, make him the running back coach. The coordinator positions are too important. He'd have to have the proverbial picture of Dantonio in bed with a dead girl or a live boy to make that hire worthwhile.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:47 PM ^
C'mon, USF, make this a real Spartyfest.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:47 PM ^
USF should have called that run on 1st or 2nd down.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:47 PM ^
That was a good call to run it with how bad the USF QB is. Better off running it to set up the easy FG than risk a turnover. 7-6 at halftime is good. Minimize your offensive risks and aim for more turnovers from State.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:47 PM ^
This is the MSU of 10 years ago - dumb penalties, stupid coaching, weak talent all over the place, only diff is the defense is better but he offense is worse. At least JOhn L Smith was fun to watch as he was being an idiot. These Spartans are boring as hell.
September 7th, 2013 at 2:49 PM ^
So about those recruits watching this MSU game and excited to join the new Spartan era....
September 7th, 2013 at 2:52 PM ^
This can't help their shot of landing Cole as a WR. I also imagine if Campbell blows up and gets better offers, he'd jump ship pretty quickly.
