Michigan State will need to have a collective effort from the front seven in order to contain Indiana's offense on Saturday.
EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Michigan State's linebacker room will have a next-man-up approach going into the Spartans' matchup with No. 13 Indiana on Saturday.
Their top player, Jordan Turner, will miss the first half of the contest as part of his punishment for his targeting penalty against Michigan this past weekend. One of the players who will need to step up is sophomore linebacker Jordan Hall. He and the rest of Michigan State's deep front seven will have to win the battle in the trenches for the Spartans to be successful against a great Indiana offense.You can watch below:
Below is a transcript from Michigan State coach Jonathan Smith's opening statement from his presser on Monday: Smith: "Like always, quick look back on the tape, really, in all three phases, opportunities, but missed opportunities at the same time. And it did cost us offensively. Production early on with the ball, came short of the red zone, and then, obviously, with the ball at the end of the game, opportunities there. Was proud at the line of scrimmage. I thought we did some good things, making it physical in the run game. I mean, Nate Carter had a great game, catching it and running it.
