The Michigan State Spartan Football team sits at 4-3. Coming into a season full of excitement and promise, the team stands on the precipice of watching their season fall into a complete collapse with a loss on Saturday. This game with #6 Penn State (7-0) kicks off at 3:30 PM at Spartan Stadium.
The above video is legendary state of Michigan High School basketball and football coach Chuck Grenier talking about the Good, Bad and the Ugly with the current state of Michigan State Football.
Dantonio this week said of his Spartans, "Penn State rivalry. Traditionally, I think when Coach Perles was here and Penn State came into the league, we started playing them the last game of the season in 1993, I believe, and it's taken on a little bit of a different twist because we are playing in mid-season now. I believe we played them up through 2016 on the last game of the season, and was sort of a building rivalry. "
Dantonio added, "There's been some great games in the past as we've gone through this, and you know, it's sort of a game that we've pointed to. Have not had a home game since September 28, so a little bit different type of scheduling. Sort of in a different phase here because we have one game, basically in, three weeks' time with a bye coming next week, as well. Two games, Penn State, Illinois in one month, four weeks. It's a little bit different in terms what have we were dealing with, but we knew this was going to happen and needed to prepare ourselves accordingly. I think we've embraced the situation. Opportunity to get guys back and focus in a little bit more as we go forward."
