Michigan State thrives on turnovers to defeat Akron 52-0

The No. 14/11 Michigan State Spartans dominated the Akron Zips on Saturday afternoon, by a score of 52-0.

MSU took an even bigger hit in the injury department when defensive tackle Jacob Slade, wide receiver Jayden Reed, safety Angelo Grose, and quarterback Payton Thorne went out with injury for at least several plays. However, Slade and Grose were able to return in the second half.

Reed was pushed into a bucket of Gatorade before exiting the game. Thorne took a big hit after running a flea-flicker that led to his second interception of the game.
