MSU Season Opener: Promise and Problems | Michigan State Spartans Football News

Michigan State’s season opener was a mixed bag of promise and potential pitfalls. QB Alessio Milivojevic delivered a clean, efficient performance with 247 yards and a TD, while Cam Edwards powered the ground game with 98 yards and a score.

The Spartans showed flashes of greatness—but consistency across the board will be crucial before conference play.
