EAST LANSING, Mich. – Following last Saturday’s 31-28 victory over No. 7 Oregon, two Spartans were honored by the Big Ten Conference office on Monday, as junior linebacker Riley Bullough was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week and running back LJ Scott earned Big Ten Freshman of the Week accolades.
Bullough recorded a career-high 14 tackles and a pass break-up against the Ducks. He also was credited with a quarterback hurry on Oregon's fourth-and-16 play from the MSU 43-yard line with just over a minute left in the game, forcing Vernon Adams to come up short on his pass attempt intended for Bralon Addison.
