The odds of beating MSU are not good. If we can find some magic in a blackout night game at HPSS I will be elated.
But all I really need to be happy is an end to the stupid penalties. Like Flood, I'm OK with some "enthusiasm" type penalties, but the constant off-sides, etc. just has to stop. Stop killing our own drives and we may start to look a lot better.
The one other thing is that we need to take at least one shot downfield each half. Even when incomplete it forces the opposing safetys to stay back on most plays, and helps open up the run game.
