Michigan Fans Eye Michigan State’s Coaching Staff and Roster After Shocking Loss to Texas

It’s been a while since I’ve felt this positive about Michigan State football, but the Spartans’ 27-24 victory at Maryland has me thrilled. Adding to the joy is Michigan’s crushing 31-12 loss to Texas at home. With a Detroit Lions win also in the mix, I didn’t think things could get any better for me on the football front.

Turns out, I was wrong.

The Michigan loss was already a highlight, but the meltdown from Michigan fans afterward has made it even sweeter. If you’ve been following recruiting forums, you might have seen a Michigan fan’s post expressing a wish for Jonathan Smith, offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren, and freshman star Nick Marsh to join their program.

Given how Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore seems overwhelmed and the Wolverines’ offense has been underwhelming, I can’t blame them. It’s surprising they didn’t mention wanting Aidan Chiles, given that no Michigan quarterback has shown they can effectively pass the ball.

Michigan State football coach Jonathan Smith, right, talks with athletic director Alan Haller after MSU's victory over Florida Atlantic on Friday, Aug. 30, 2024, at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing.

While the season is still young and Michigan could very well beat MSU in Ann Arbor later, I’m feeling a lot more confident about that matchup now.

After all the trash talk from Michigan fans this offseason, it’s satisfying to see them brought back down to earth after just two weeks of play.
