Check out some of the best photos from MSU football’s loss at Rutgers on Saturday.

Michigan State football continues to find new ways to lose this year.

The Spartans outplayed Rutgers for most of the game on Saturday, but costly mistakes in the fourth quarter led to a monster comeback in a Scarlet Knights 27-24 victory. Michigan State let an 18-point lead evaporate in a four-minute span in the fourth quarter to lose their fourth straight game.

Michigan State is now 2-4 on the season and 0-3 in Big Ten play. Reaching a bowl game is in doubt with a remaining schedule that includes three top 10 teams in Michigan, Ohio State and Penn State.

WATCH: Graham Couch, Chris Solari analyze Spartans collapse vs. Rutgers

Hear what Graham Couch and Chris Solari had to say about the Spartans’ heartbreaking collapse at Rutgers on Saturday

Michigan State football lost in a remarkably heartbreaking fashion on Saturday at Rutgers.

The Spartans dominated the Scarlet Knights for the first three quarters in building a 24-6 lead going into the final quarter. However, that lead slipped away in a four-minute span that included costly mistake after costly mistake as Rutgers stormed back for the 27-24 win.

The loss to Rutgers was just another blow in an already brutally tough season for the Spartans, who have now lost four straight games. Michigan State is 2-4 overall and would need a dramatic turn of events to reach the postseason.
