The State Of Michigan State Spartan Football Week 10!

This week on the State of Michigan State football, Spartan Nation writer Jon Schopp joins us to go in-depth on the state of the Spartan program's despair. With the program in a free fall, times are not good.

The Spartans must come up with answers that frankly are NOT able to be answered in season. With Mark Dantonio's future in doubt and the program in turmoil, this are not well inside the Duffy Daugherty football building.

How bad is the Spartan offense? Check out these atrocious numbers. They are:

*They are 12th out of 14 teams in the Big Ten in scoring offense.

*They are 13th out of 14 teams in the Big Ten in rushing offense.

*They are 5th in the Big Ten out of 14 teams in the Big Ten in passing offense. That number is deceptive, as teams that are losing by large margins must pass more in order to catch up, thus the increase in production. That is not a positive.

*They are 11th out of 14 teams in the Big Ten in total offense. That is embarrassing for a program in which the head coach could have hired any offensive staff that he wanted and AD Bill Beekman would have paid for it.

On a side note, this was recorded prior to the breaking news about Joe Bachie.
