The 35-13 win over Western Michigan was a remarkable start for the Michigan State Spartans, who opened the 2022 season in this manner. With Payton Thorne as the star player, beyond the final result, they did not have the performance they expected.
We have a lot of work to do, but I like what I saw in the locker room after the game. We are a hungry soccer team and we know we have to improve.
Mel Tucker, Michigan State coach
After taking a 21-3 lead early in the second quarter, the Spartans allowed an average Mid-American Conference team to get within eight points at the end of the third after outscoring them 10-0 in the fourth. Against Akron, they will have the chance to improve their performance.
We did not play very well in the third quarter. I don’t know what the official statistics are. It was pretty bad.
