While it is true he made a particularly bad judgement on that ONE play, keep in mind that he tore his knee completely up in '99 and was pretty much the best we had still. Not to mention we were pretty damn good that year. Seeing how we followed that game up with the workment of Florida (quite possibly one of the finest beatdowns in MSU football history), I'd say that didn't really start any type of skid. I think I'd blame the ****** end of that season on the egg we laid in the Arkansas tundra game.
Plus, I knew Roberson and he was a hell of a nice guy and loved MSU and he was visibly hurt for a while after that play. But it was still one play. I just don't think he's deserving to be mentioned in this thread with the other yahoos people have mentioned.
