How To Watch Michigan State Vs. Nebraska – Details, Quick Facts, And Predictions
Week 4 sees Michigan State back in the friendly confines of Spartan Stadium. The question on everyone’s mind is if the potential we saw in last week’s defeat to Notre Dame will translate into a positive outcome against a lesser opponent.

Big Ten football starts in two days. Hopefully you already had a chance to read Mike’s preview. Here to answer some questions on the school that made us a 12-team conference is Jon Johnston from Corn Nation. Let’s see what he had to say. TOC: Nebraska is now in year 4 of the Matt Rhule […]
Michigan State vs. Nebraska Game Preview
After dropping its first game of the season at Notre Dame, Michigan State must regroup, and recover, before hosting Nebraska in the Big Ten opener for both teams (5 PM ET, Big Ten Network). The Spartans, as we know, defeated a pair of MAC teams in Toledo and Eastern Michigan before a 27-10 loss to […]
The Film Room: Notre Dame
This was the game I was most excited to watch coming into the season. Michigan State traveled to South Bend to face a Notre Dame powerhouse with championship expectations, giving the Spartans an opportunity to measure themselves against one of the best teams in the country. The Toledo and Eastern Michigan games were fun, but […]
Jordan Hall: Defense Wins Player of the Game Awards
While our Spartans may have fallen to Notre Dame on Saturday, the MSU defense had its moments as they held the Fighting Irish to a season-low 27 points (previous low was 41). But one name amongst the defenders shined brighter than the others. After MSU surrendered a 61-yard pass on ND’s first play from scrimmage, […]

MSU vs Notre Dame Weather Report
Well, it was not exactly a beauuuutiful day for football. With rain and a hostile environment, the Spartans faced the #3 ranked team in the country as nearly 30 point dogs. Nobody, except maybe the team themselves, thought MSU had a chance. While this game had its fair share of clouds, it did give us […]
Instant Recap: MSU shows hope in a 27-10 loss to ND
The Spartans officially have their first loss of the season. Michigan State kicked off to Notre Dame and the Fighting Irish started with a 61-yard bomb from CJ Carr on their first play of the game. It was their longest play of the season so far, but MSU was able to stop ND in the […]
Game Thread: Michigan State @ Notre Dame
Here we go for game 3 of the Michigan State University football season. The Spartans put there 2-0 record on the line with a roadie at Notre Dame. Rain and thunderstorms in the forecast throughout Saturday in South Bend. Bring a raincoat if you are making the trip. Will I see any of you there? […]

How To Watch Michigan State At Notre Dame – Details, Quick Facts, And Predictions
Week 3 sees Michigan State playing in our first road game of the season and it just may end up being our toughest opponent of 2026. Notre Dame is #3 in the rankings, among the favorites to win the national championship, and has a quarterback, CJ Carr, who was the preseason favorite to win the […]
Getting To Know The Enemy: 6Qs About The Notre Dame Fighting Irish
With the smaller MAC schools portion of the season behind us, we are moving forward to play teams that have their own SB Nation sites (UCLA, which is on our schedule, and USC do not have their own sites). Henceforth, in addition to Mike’s weekly opponent previews, I will also be collaborating with a writer […]
Michigan State vs. Notre Dame Game Preview
After Saturday’s 35-7 win over Eastern Michigan, it’s probably safe to say that the football season is meeting expectations thus far for Michigan State. The Spartans had a rough third quarter against Toledo but responded for a 30-20 win. Then, it was a rough second quarter against Eastern before halftime adjustments – perhaps more executional […]
The Film Room: Eastern Michigan Edition
Being 2 & 0 feels great! There are still plenty of things to clean up, but I’m enjoying watching this Michigan State team figure out what it can be under fiery Pat Fitzgerald. Saturday gave us some frustrating stretches, some encouraging individual performances, and a finish that had the sideline fired up. Robbie and I […]
Cam Edwards: Running Away With Player Of The Game Award
Two weeks down and two wins in the books. The week 2 win over Eastern Michigan was certainly a much more comfortable victory for MSU. As such, we saw a number of Spartans make their case for player of the game, both on offense and on defense. Unlike game 1, the special teams was not […]
The Only Colors Reacts Survey
The easy part of the schedule is behind us now and Michigan State is getting set to take on third-ranked Notre Dame on the road this Saturday. Mike will have his preview out later this week and we also are doing a 5Qs with one of the writers from ND’s site. But first we want […]
MSU vs Eastern Michigan Weather Report
Saturday was an absolute beauuuutiful day for football in East Lansing. Game two is always a favorite of mine each season. The alumni band is present and seeing so many members with the current band all at once is something special. Shout out to the 50 year anniversary of the color guard too. It is […]
Instant Recap: Spartans blow out Eagles 35-7
That’s two wins in a row. I felt a little worried after the first half, but they looked like a new team in the second. This was a fun win for MSU, and they showed improvement after their Week 1 win against Toledo. Coach Fitzgerald is now 2-0 as Michigan State’s head coach. Hopefully there’s […]
Game Thread: Michigan State Vs. Eastern Michigan
Here we go for game 2 of the Michigan State University football season. Pat Fitzgerald has us at 1-0 as we welcome the Eagles from Ypsilanti to East Lansing. It should be another beautiful day at Spartan Stadium for those of you who will be in attendance. Whether you are at the game or watching […]
