What's happened to Michigan State?

[football follies]

They are sitting at 2-4. Their only wins are against Furman and ND.

 

[Beatle Bum]

Maybe the QB position is a big deal?

 

[Robcatt24]

Vince Marrow is what happened.

UK has shut off their Ohio recruiting pipeline.

 

[RackOps]

I wouldn't say he's shut them off, but he's put a significant hit on them. We are going up against them for the same kids in Ohio.

Also, the Harbaugh Death Star is coming up to speed. When big brother ascends, it's tough for little brother to get traction.

 

[Deeeefense]

They get worse each week. Dantonio seems to have lost his mojo. The defensive genius just gave up 54 at home to a 2-3 Northwestern Team - OUCH!

 

[Michigan Fan]

Uh..they were just in the CFP 9 months ago...down year and replacing Connor Cook was a bigger deal than most realized...Dantonio will be back very soon.

James Hudson still stings.

 

[GYERater]

They recruit basically the same players we do, not a shock they are struggling.

 

[ScrewDuke1]

They don't have a very good QB.

 

[Michigan Fan]

They don't have a very good QB.

People don't realize how important that position is...just look at this year Top 10 ....it really shown last night between Wisconsin and Ohio State

 

[Fadhi]

Its their coaches. Narduzzi was a big loss. They don't like the offensive coordinator as well. Also,as stated, they had some string of qbs there for awhile untill this season.

 

[bthaunert]

The same thing that happened to Oregon. QB play is everything

 

[Rhavic]

The same thing that happened to Oregon. QB play is everything

Probably TCU as well.

 

[merrimanm]

Dantonio forgot how to "coach em up".

They even lost to IU a few weeks ago.

 

[JasonS.]

Narduzzi was a big loss, and dip in QB play as noted above. But they'll be okay ... I'm not sure there's a better pure "coach" head coach in football than Dantonio.

He's basically the Tom Izzo of football, which fits.

 

[UKWildcats#8]

They are sitting at 2-4. Their only wins are against Furman and ND.

Is it bad that I don't know who to rate as their best win? [laughing] ND pretty awful too.

 

[College#19]

QB play at the college level often dictates a teams success. TXAM is 6-0 because they got a QB that is playing well.

If I'm LSU that is a guy that I would go after.

 

[Tummygoat]

5 of last 7 seasons double digit wins. They'll be ok.
