No. 11 Michigan State is back in action after having a bye week following their loss to the No. 2 Oregon Ducks. The Spartans are back on the field and looking to take their frustrations out on the Eastern Michigan Eagles.
Michigan State let a prime opportunity slip through their fingers when they allowed the Ducks to come back after three quarters and beat them in heartbreaking fashion 46-27. Now Sparty needs to string together a series of impressive wins to get back into the conversation for the college football's four-team playoff.
Coach Mark Dantonio said that he is just anxious to get back on the field and play after a loss and a bye week.
"Here we are at the beginning of the season with the bye after two games, that's very early in the process. And I think any time that's happening, you want to play," Dantonio said. "We want to be fresh. We want to be motivated to play and have great attention to detail, all those different things we talk about.”
Eastern Michigan enter this game after dropping back to back games against Florida and Old Dominion by a combined score of 82-3.
Michigan State and Eastern Michigan have played nine times all-time and the Spartans have won all nine of the games.
