Fall position battles have been a hot topic for Michigan State football, as well as nationwide. Although the quarterback position has been settled, other key positions are still up for grabs.
Recent competition has been intense along the offensive line. Tanner Miller is confirmed as the starting center, with Brandon Baldwin and Ashton Lepo likely to secure the tackle spots. Luke Newman appears to be the starting left guard, but the right guard position was still undecided. Kristian Phillips and Gavin Broscious have been in a fierce contest for this spot, and it seems the decision has now been made.
According to Justin Thind of 247Sports, Phillips has been named the starting right guard. There has been significant optimism about Phillips reaching his potential, with his size, strength, and agility contributing to his selection. Broscious, while not starting, will still play a key role and may share some reps with Phillips.
This development is promising for Michigan State, as it indicates the emergence of clear starters and the depth of the offensive line. Phillips has three years of eligibility remaining, suggesting stability for the offensive line over the next few seasons, along with Lepo and Broscious. Additionally, Michigan State has other promising players like Stanton Ramil, Cole Dellinger, Rustin Young, and Andrew Dennis, who could become key contributors in the future.
