Michigan State football took another tough loss on Saturday afternoon.

Michigan State dropped its third straight game on Saturday in a blowout loss at Illinois. The Spartans trailed the entire game, but it wasn’t until the fourth quarter when the Fighting Illini pulled away for the 38-16 victory.

With the loss, Michigan State is now 4-6 overall and 2-5 in Big Ten play. This will be the third straight year and fifth in the last six years that Michigan State will finish with a losing record in conference play. The Spartans will need to win both of its remaining games (Purdue and Rutgers) to reach bowl eligibility and avoid a third straight bowless season.

Hear what Michigan State wide receiver Montorie Foster and linebacker Darius Snow had to say about the Spartans’ performance in the loss at Illinois.
