The Spartans beat Wisconsin 34-28 in double OT, and that means Spartan players, coaches, students, fans and alumni are entitled to celebrate. Yet, it’s hard to believe it was the Spartans first victory since beating lowly Akron on Sep 10, and the first victory over a Power 5 team this…

The Spartans, are 2-4 overall, 0-3 Big Ten with zero victories vs Power 5 opponents, and now comes the reenergized Wisconsin Badgers! Wisconsin is just 3-3 overall, yet they appear to be recharged due to a recent coaching change (which we’ll review below) and their compass is pointed due north…

The 29 point differential, doesn’t speak to the magnitude of the beatdown the Spartans endured this weekend, and sadly, the wheels are about to come off the football cart.

At the Big Ten Media Days, Mel Tucker declared “we have a very high standard of performance. ” So much for high standards of performance.

Saturday’s loss at Seattle was a national embarrassment in prime time and it doesn’t bode well for the future.

Despite strong finishes in their first two outings, the Spartans didn’t earn an abundance of style points, heading to Washington with unanswered questions.

The Spartans beat Western Michigan 35-13 in the opening game (exceeding the 21.5-point spread) but in spite of the 22 point victory, the overall performance was uneven and it proved there is still a lot of work to do.
