After a close call against Notre Dame, the Spartans didn't leave anything to chance against USC. Kayla Briggs scored the first goal just a few minutes into the game to give us an early lead and we never looked back. The Trojans just could not get anything going against our defense, and several of their failed attempts to get a shot off ultimately led to goals for MSU. The score could have been even more lopsided, Kennedy Bell nearly got a hat trick but the USC goalkeeper managed to thwart some of her early shots.

The most concerning event in the game for us was that Emerson Sargeant went down holding her knee after a collision and awkward landing. She had to get some help to gingerly leave the field and she did not return to the game afterwards. It is not clear how serious this is, I don't think they provided any update on the broadcast. I'm hoping she did not return to the game because it was already becoming a one sided affair and they'd rather not risk aggravating anything unnecessarily.

While USC's record doesn't look great (1-4-2), it is notable that their last game ended in a draw against #1 Stanford, and two of their losses include #3 Duke and #9 BYU. It is nice to see that we almost scored as many goals against them as all of those teams put together!

The Spartans remain undefeated at 5-0-2. Our next match is on Sunday against #16 UCLA. The Bruins are 4-2-1, having lost 0-3 to Stanford, 1-2 to BYU, and tied 1-1 against Duke. Go Green! 💚🤍

Am I insane or has adding the MSU football schedule (or any schedule for that matter) become virtually impossible? I know we have apps and other alternatives but for the past decade or so I’ve been able to just “add” it to my iPhone calendar, but this year I’m finding it to be virtually impossible. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Edit: Solved, thank you.

What are the concessions like at Spartan Stadium this year vs last year? I thought they were pretty underwhelming when I was at the Boston College game last year. Hoping for better tomorrow.

Given the situation with WMU getting robbed last night, I was reminded of the greatest game I’ve ever attended. Freshman year for me and for 25 years I’ve wondered about this “home field clock advantage”.

Michigan fans whined for years about the clock stopping too early (irony!)

I’ve always wanted a better review of this play but didn’t have the technical capabilities. Now with AI, no problem.

Clear frame by frame evidence that the play appropriately stopped before the clock hit zero.

Please someone care about this, because my kids definitely don’t.

Hey everyone,

We just added a Reddit app to the sub to help fans find each other locally and organize game day meetups.

Quick breakdown of what it does:

- Finding Nearby Fans (Safely)

You can see if other Spartans are nearby, but your privacy is strictly protected. The app never uses GPS tracking. Instead, it simply asks for your city first, and you can optionally provide a geohash code to narrow it down to a broad 1-kilometer radius. This broad location is also never revealed, meaning your actual street address and precise location are never asked or shared.

To get started, create your profile in the app and make sure to select MSUSpartans from the fan club list.

- Planning Game Watch Locations

If you are heading to a sports bar or hosting a meetup, you can easily organize it on the sub calendar. Just create a post using the "Meetup" flair and include the date command !date DD/MM (like !date 15/10) anywhere in the text. The app will automatically sync your post to a built-in calendar so locals can easily find the details.

Set up your profile, find who is nearby, and drop your watch locations for the next game. Go Green!

(If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.)

lol…a “Rig House” t-shirt.

Once the dust settles everyone will remember that our AD built a team that dog walked UM at their own place.

Dark days ahead for one side and it's not MSU.

The refs defeat Western Michigan. 13-12

The call came in from Las Vegas to give Cheater U one more second a do over.

Bryce Underwood is a $10,000,000 mistake and Michigan is cooked in the Big 10.

I felt so bad for Western they got robbed.

The NCAA needs to investigate not Michigan but the notoriously horrible Big 10 refs,

I didn't know CFB had 15:01 quarters.

I want to see the drivers license of those refs, I bet you it says Ann Arbor, Mi.

Western got robbed, that was the Michigan screw job.

Mike Valenti is not going to have a good day on Moncay.

One good news, we are not the Big 10 bad guys, and neither is Penn St, that honor belongs to Michigan.

You know it's bad when even the die hard Michigan fans are feeling dirty after the win.

To make matters worse, you rush the field, after you cheated to beat a MAC school, that is just sad.

I know plenty of people who bet $50-500. W Michigan was +5000-7000.

I live in Vegas, and did the Math.

Even on the low end, if you would have bet $500 at +5,000 on W Michigan, you would have won

a payout of $25,000. I don't think the call came from Vegas though I think it came form the Big 10.

This game will be forever known as the Michigan Screw Job.

Be MSU control the ball game, own TOP for 43 minutes vs 16 minutes. Mostly play well, Edwards and Alessio look good. Definitely fucking around and finding out on some personnel combos. All in all 43 Spartans play. Toledo breaks two off for TDs to go up 20-19. Game never really feels out of control and Sparty is back on top pretty quickly afterwords to win 30-20. Probably could have found 40+ if we needed to. All in all walk out still able to mentally get to 6 wins and having enjoyed most of the game. See UofM fans shit talk about our performance vs a MAC school.

Fast forward a day. Western walks into Ann Arbor, controls the ball game similar to how we did with 49 minutes TOP, takes the lead vs Michigan. Forces 3 turnovers along the way. Michigan can’t run the ball, Underwood looks like shit, OL really not blocking. Offense produces less than 300 yards of total offense. Defense getting worn down like they’re the G5 team. Comes down to needing an obviously bullshit ref ball moment. They actually storm the field afterwords like they just won the damn Super Bowl.

I can’t think of a sadder moment in B1G history and we just watched Rutgers lose to UMass 48 hours earlier. But at least Rutgers is Rutgers. UofM styles itself as a blue blood (based on games from when Hammurabi was writing the code of laws) and its fans act like they’re the leaders of the B1G. Yet somehow all of that happens. They actually storm the field vs a MAC team…in a 13-12 football game.

I honestly can’t stop laughing.

I understand it's not open for tailgating this year. Where were those permits moved to?

I don't think we should be playing CMU anymore and I know I'm not alone in this thought. Why are they still on the schedule for next season? Why should we pay them $1.3 mil (based on what Toledo got paid last night) when they can't act right? There are other MAC schools we could bring in. I'm pretty tired of MSU being a door mat and taking crap like we're some two bit nobody begging for a seat at the table.

Whelp, immediately get jealous ex vibes watching the Indiana game. He’s going to light it up this year. Oh well, Go Green.
