While Michigan State has been transparent in releasing the results of its COVID-19 testing, the university has never broken down the number of positive tests by sport.
And as the Spartans prepare to open the football season Saturday at home against Rutgers, there’s still no clear picture on how many players on the roster have been affected and whether any will be forced to miss the noon kickoff.

“We have released those results for a number of months now and so, as of right now, we're working with the guys that we have,” Tucker said during his virtual meeting with reporters.
