Michigan State QB Alessio Milivojevic talks after loss to Nebraska

Check out what MSU QB Alessio Milivojevic had to say after the loss to Nebraska.

Michigan State football found itself needing to start from scratch after their opening match of the Big Ten season was lost to Nebraska. The Spartans suffered a 31-13 defeat and have now recorded a 2-2 record on the season. During this loss, Alessio Milivojevic, the quarterback, demonstrated a performance that fell short of what was expected.

He completed 18 out of 26 passes for 203 yards, but also recorded an interception, lost a fumble, and faced five sacks. In the aftermath of the game, Milivojevic addressed the media regarding his role in the loss: "That falls on me. For me to give away the ball multiple times, take sacks, it's 100% on me." He acknowledged the disappointment of the defeat, stating, "You hate the taste of it.

You have to go back to your process." Milivojevic expressed sorrow for the team's loss of a player named Jaz Patterson, praising his performance and emphasizing that the team will need him more in the future. The quarterback emphasized that as an athlete, he aims to win every game and highlighted that losing is not acceptable: "We need to start faster. Our key points are start fast and finish strong, and we did neither today."
