It’s sometimes easy to forget that Michigan State football is still playing this season.
The Spartans have lost seven straight games and have two remaining — and Jonathan Smith is on the hot seat. The next matchup comes against a solid Iowa team on Saturday afternoon in Iowa City and then the season will be capped off with a neutral-site game against Maryland at Ford Field in Detroit. Both games could end up as losses and Michigan State could very well finish the year on a nine-game losing streak, but some guys have shown the same effort throughout the year.
