2 wins in, Michigan State football knows challenge from Notre Dame coming
It took a half before Michigan State football got rolling to a win over Eastern Michigan. Pat Fitzgerald knows fixes are needed with Notre Dame next.
Michigan State's football team began its season with a 35-7 victory over Eastern Michigan, but coach Pat Fitzgerald cautioned that the challenge of facing No. 4 Notre Dame on Sept. 19 may be tougher. The Spartans struggled with physicality and execution against EMU, surrendering big plays and failing to capitalize on their own opportunities.
Quarterback Alessio Milivojevic was the bright spot, throwing two touchdowns and rushing for another. Redshirt freshman Cam Edwards added a touchdown run and 152 receiving yards. The team will need to maintain its physicality and composure to handle Notre Dame's powerful offense, which has already dominated its opponents this season.
