Game Time Announced For Michigan Vs. Michigan State

If it hasn’t done it yet, with a non-conference schedule that should’ve seen Purdue post at least three tallies in the “W” column, will it ever happen? Riley Bullough sounded like he was talking about an upcoming trigonometry exam when he said of the result: “We’re pumped”. Quarterback Clayton Thorson over with 256 backyards, a few touchdowns and an interception on 18-of-31 leaving, at the time of Justin Jackson worked to acquire a career-high 184 backyards on 33 transmits for Northwestern. The defense toyed with the Gophers allowing just 75 rushing yards and never letting it get interesting. “Usually we’ll make those announcements prior to the game, if they are not able to play in the game, that’s when we’ll make them”. On the other side, Indiana has started 4-0 for the first time since 1990.

Any argument about where Michigan State belongs, though, ends at the locker room door.

SERIES HISTORY: Michigan State leads Purdue 34-28-3. I thought that was a little classless, and my friend heard someone said he should “walk it off so they don’t call a timeout”.

The Hoosiers have had to come from behind in three of four of their wins in the second half and have not exactly played murderers’ row (Southern Illinois, Florida global, Western Kentucky, at Wake Forest).

Boilermakers quarterback David Blough, however, is exhausted of falling short. The Michigan State fans that were left around me found it hilarious. A freshman, Markell Jones, rolled through MSUs defense for 157 yards, including a 68-yard TD run, Saturday.

Michigan State is now ranked No. 2 in the country, but their statistical profile does not come close to justifying the faith that voters are placing in the team.

So it was a win over Purdue Saturday, 24-21. I started thinking, “This is actually happening”. With his fellow receivers failing to distinguish themselves, Burbridge is going to have to get used to drawing double coverage going forward, and his NFL Draft stock will almost certainly depend on how he fares from here on out.

Michigan’s season-opening loss looks better following the Utes’ sheer annihilation of Oregon, and by the transitive property the Wolverines have pretty much already beaten Michigan State. When Purdue was given the first down, I told my friend that there’s no way Purdue wins now: Ball don’t lie.

“I feel like we should be No. 1”, sophomore defensive tackle Malik McDowell said. So Michigan State can reaffirm its status as one of the contenders for the national title with a convincing win this weekend.

The Spartans, keeping the ball mostly on the ground, drove 65 yards to set up Michael Geiger’s 30-yard field goal, but Purdue answered with an impressive drive of its own, and Jones’ 3-yard touchdown run with 6:44 to play made it a three-point game. “Particularly when you are playing against someone as good as Michigan State”. It’s nice hearing those kind of compliments after a game, but you still wish Purdue would finally push through and earn a win in the 4th quarter.
