Hear Michigan State CB Charles Brantley recap the Spartans’ victory over Prairie View A&M

Michigan State football used a stifling defensive effort and a critical interception from cornerback Charles Brantley to shut out Prairie View A&M on Saturday.

Michigan State improved to 3-0 on the year thanks to a 40-0 victory over the Panthers on Saturday afternoon. The Spartans are 3-0 for the first time in three years.

Brantley made one of the notable highlight plays of the day when he returned an interception 100 yards for a touchdown. He had an interception for a touchdown called off earlier in the drive due to a penalty and then topped that with an even better play later on.

Michigan State will head to Boston College next week to wrap-up non-conference play. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET.

Before turning our focus to the Eagles, hear what Brantley had to say about the Spartans’ victory over Prairie View A&M below.

MSU CB Charles Brantley laughs at where MSU landed in preseason Big Ten poll

Where the Spartans landed in the Big Ten preseason poll is comical to MSU’s Charles Brantley

Where the Spartans landed in the Big Ten preseason media poll is comical to Michigan State cornerback Charles Brantley.

The Spartans were picked to finish 16th out of 18 teams in the Big Ten football preseason poll released by Cleveland.com on Monday. That low of a placement was surprising to me, and it apparently was funny to Brantley, who took to X to post about it.

Check out Brantley’s post on X below:
