Saturday night proved Michigan State football has a ways to go to beat the big boys, but they at least are more competitive with the top tier squads than we’ve seen the past two seasons.
The Spartans hung with the Buckeyes for most of the first half, but a late half score for Ohio State pushed their lead to three scores which ultimately was too big of a hole to overcome. The final score was 38-7 and was the Spartans’ ninth straight home loss to Ohio State.
With the loss, Michigan State drops to 3-2 overall and 1-1 in Big Ten play on the season. The Spartans have now lost two straight games, and have another tough game ahead at top 10 Oregon next week.
Following the loss, Michigan State linebacker Cal Haladay met with the media to discuss the game. Hear what he had to say in his post-game press conference in the video below:
