Quote Of The Day
“It’s going to be passionate and all those things. I’ve been part of an in-state rivalry really my whole coaching career. I think that’s the great thing about college football — the traditions that go with that. Every game means something, but that game will definitely mean more.”
— Michigan State head coach Jonathan Smith on the Michigan rivalry
