Getting upset.

As of late, MSU has taken the baton of being the biggest choke-meisters in college football. This was a fact last year in the Monsoon bowl versus ND and all of us wearing green will accept that.

But, if you look at the facts, those hard-fighting Spartans have historically won some of the biggest upsets in college football history, even recent history. Here's a list I'm starting. PLEASE post some other big wins if you know them :

2005 - Beat then ranked #10 Notre Dame
2004 - Beat then ranked #4 Wisconsin
1998 - Beat then ranked #1 Ohio State
1995 - Beat then ranked #7 Michigan
1990 - Beat then ranked #1 Michigan
1974 - Beat then ranked #1 Ohio State

Once complete, this will be posted on my site at wwwSpartyOnDotcom

GO GREEN.

MSU Mid-Season Check-in

The facts :


Mike Hurt =
1078 Yards in 200 Attempts = 5.4 Yards per carry

Javon Ringer =
932 Yards in 132 Rush Attempts = 7.1 Yards per carry

Ringer has 76 less carries and Hurt has only 146 more yards

76 less carries x 7.1 Average = Ringer would have 539.6 more yards if he had the same amount of carries



Mike Hurt = 12 TDs

Jehuu Caulcrick = 13 TDs



In the 10 minutes of UM football I've watched this season, Hurt has thrown his helmet down on the field wimpering twice.


Hurt will never win the Heisman.
