Michigan State's loss an important lesson in 'inches'

Related Topics: Michigan, Mark Dantonio

The second time QB Tyler O'Connor watched Michigan State's loss to Wisconsin this past Saturday night he wanted to turn his iPad into a Frisbee, launching it across the room from the couch in his apartment.

Part punishment, part preparation, O’Connor had watched the loss -- his first in four games as a starting quarterback for the Spartans -- twice in the hours following the 30-6 beating in East Lansing before friends pulled him off the couch to eat some wings and try stop him from thinking about all the little mistakes eating away at him.
