Peach Bowl: How Michigan State secondary plans to fix leaks vs. Pitt's Nick Patti

What initially appeared to be the toughest test for Michigan State football’s problematic secondary this season transformed into an entirely different type of challenge.

Figuring out who is Nick Patti.

In case you are wondering as well, he is the Pitt quarterback who will replace Heisman Trophy finalist Kenny Pickett when the 10th-ranked Spartans face the 12th-ranked Panthers in Thursday’s Peach Bowl.

“We don't have as much film as we do with Kenny Pickett, but we're going to treat him like he's a great quarterback,” safety Darius Snow said Monday morning before MSU’s practice in Atlanta.
