Michigan State freshman WR Jalen Nailor breaks out in win at Indiana

Jalen Nailor delivered an opening statement and closed with an exclamation point.

The Michigan State true freshman wide receiver notched his first career touchdown reception in the first quarter and added a score on the ground late to seal a 35-21 win at Indiana on Saturday night.

"He's made plays throughout summer camp and then he made a couple plays in the last couple games," Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said. "He's got good hands, he can run and obviously he's got some big-play ability, so we want to take advantage of that."
