Milivojevic Takes Responsibility | Michigan State Spartans Football News

Michigan State edged out Toledo 30-20 in a gritty opener, with quarterback Alessio Milivojevic taking ownership of key mistakes that kept the game closer than it should have been. While the offense moved the ball effectively, they struggled to finish drives—especially in the red zone—with Milivojevic admitting he needs to convert more opportunities into touchdowns. Toledo’s deep defensive coverage stifled big plays, but the Spartans’ focus on fundamentals and “takes no talent” plays helped them stay disciplined. The coaching staff is pushing for consistent performance in practice, making playing time contingent on execution—not just results—and emphasizing that tape doesn’t lie. With Eastern Michigan up next, the Spartans hope to exploit defensive matchups and unlock their explosive potential.
