I almost started this post with a painful, blow-by-blow recap of the painful ebb and flow of the disaster that I witnessed in person on Saturday night in Spartan Stadium. But, honestly, I don’t see the point. If you are reading this, you know what happened. MSU had an early 28-3 lead and through a long, bizarre, and painful series of improbable and unfortunate events MSU lost a heart breaker with 5 seconds left.
I could go on for paragraphs about tipped passes, hail Mary’s, blown calls, blown assignments, or missed tackles, but the overall weirdness of the game can be summarized by one simple example.
