Absolutely saved the (sports) weekend.
It's concerning that this team insists on winning close games in the late stages instead of putting teams away early when the chance presents itself--but that's a silly thing to complain about. We're winning.
We're 7-2. 7-2?! It's wild. There's a lot of season left, and a lot can go wrong as the schedule toughens up considerably. Still--it's hard to see us not making the post season.
I love this team.
As for the Spartans...not much to say. There were two games on the schedule this year that we had to win at least one of to make the first ever college football playoff, Oregon and Ohio State...and we got smoked in both. Tough pill to swallow.
It's a difficult spot--there are many things I want to criticize Dantonio and his staff for. Some real bonehead decisions were made, and coming off a bye week, there is no excuse for the performance of this team.
However, the program is in phenomenal shape, and if we win out and finish 10-2...how in the world can you really complain about that? With success comes expectation...and makes the losses tougher to swallow.
GO LIONS.
