Michigan State can’t stay with the Buckeyes on the outside
Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker said everyone in the Big Ten has the Ohio State game canceled because the #Buckeyes are “maybe one of the best teams in the country.” He said you come to Michigan State to play in those big games. pic.twitter.com/AI9VVrO31g

Spartans head coach Mel Tucker alluded to what one of his big fears are when going against Ohio State. It doesn’t just have one playmaker at the wide receiver position, but several that can wiggle free and create a bad day for defeneses.
Michigan State doesn’t have the defenses of yore that it had under Mark Dantonio and are in the middle of the pack in many statisitcal categories. The running game has to be good for Ohio State too, but the defensive backs for the Spartans don’t wow you like years before and the Buckeyes are going to be able to exploit some matchups down the field.
