Charles Brantley secures 100-yard pick-six for Michigan State football

Charles Brantley broke a school record with this 100-yard pick-six:

Michigan State football is dominating Prairie View A&M at the half, leading 27-0. A big help for increasing the Spartans lead, late in the second quarter, was a pick-six for Charles Brantley.

Brantley, who had a pick-six earlier in the game called back due to a roughing the passer call, was able to secure a second interception and also brought this one back to the house.

Brantley went end zone to end zone, registering a 100-yard interception return for a touchdown, the longest in school history.

BTN broke down MSU’s matchup with PVSU

Michigan State football is off to the best start they could have asked for to open the Jonathan Smith era in East Lansing. The Spartans defeated Florida Atlantic before going on the road and earning a Big Ten road win against Maryland in College Park.

Next up for the Spartans is an FCS opponent, playing host to the Prairie View A&M Panthers inside of Spartan Stadium. The SWAC opponent was a late add to the Spartans schedule, and now is the team in the way from a 3-0 start to the Smith era.

Michigan State football adds Prairie View A&M to replace Louisiana on 2024 schedule

MSU has found their week three opponent to replace Louisiana:

Michigan State was left in a bit of a bind early this offseason. The Spartans were set to face the Ragin Cajuns of Louisiana in week three of the 2024 season. That game will not happen anymore, as Louisiana bought out of the contract, for $500,000, to replace that game with a trip to Wake Forest.

Now, just nine months away from gametime, the Spartans needed to find an opponent, which isn’t the easiest of tasks. MSU has found their new week three opponent.

In a schedule reveal on X, it was announced that MSU will now host Prairie View A&M to replace Louisiana.

Prairie View A&M is an FCS team, competing in the SWAC, and went 6-6 in 2023.
