Michigan State football played Michigan tougher than expected on Saturday afternoon in Ann Arbor. What’d we learn from this one?

Watching Saturday’s game in front of an empty Big House was weird. Seeing Michigan State, a 25-point underdog, take a lead in the first half was weirder. Taking a 20-17 lead late in the third quarter was even weirder. Beating Michigan on the road was the weirdest.
