COLLEGE PARK, Md. – We now have clarity. This is what Michigan State’s football season is going to be. Nothing is going to change significantly.
The Spartans' loss at Washington two weeks ago was alarming. The defeat Minnesota last week a new low. Saturday’s 27-13 loss at Maryland was confirmation that MSU won’t overcome its shortcomings.
The Spartans weren’t awful in every way Saturday, like they were a week ago. They just were what they are. And that’s probably a 4-8 or 5-7 football team, with a chance to beat Wisconsin, Indiana and Rutgers in three of their four remaining home games.
