Yup. To be fair though, there's no way that offense should look that terrible.

You’re almost there. If you score a TD with one of your 12, then 12 FG can’t beat you. That’s the strategy I think you’re looking for.

The "you're bullshitting me" actual fact of the week:
The B1G QB with the most passing yards so far this season is Brian Lewerke, with 797 yards, and he's only thrown 1 pick.

SKULL SESSION: MARK DANTONIO COMPARES SPARTANS TO 2002 BUCKEYES, CORNELIUS GREENE NAMED TO ROSE BOWL HALL OF FAME, AND DEVIN SMITH RETURNS TO THE LEAGUE
GOOD TRY, GOOD EFFORT. This week, Michigan State actually managed to lose a game in which it held an opponent to 10 points and 216 yards of total offense, picking up right where it left off last year when it lost a bowl game to a team it held to 203 yards and 7 points.
When I see this football team in an era . But when Mark Dantonio looks at this football team, he's apparently reminded of a national title contender – Ohio State.
From Will Burchfield of 97.1 The Ticket:
"We need to be more productive," Dantonio said. "We need to score more points."
Especially in today's era of offensive football, it's critical that Michigan State catches up. Either way, Dantonio sees hope for this team in one of his former teams -- Ohio State in 2002, who went 14-0 thanks to a terrific defense.
Dantonio was the Buckeyes' defensive coordinator.
"We won a national championship at Ohio State by winning close games, low-scoring games. So it can be done," Dantonio said. "We must do things like that to win, and that's what we'll do. Only thing that I've ever asked from our players is to compete, play hard and play courageously, and I don't see any indication that we are not doing that."
I'm sure he doesn't mean it this way, but Dino likening his dumpster fire of a team to one of the most talented Big Ten team of all time is one of the most hilariously disrespectful things I've read online in weeks.
That 2002 offense he's slandering with this comparison included a top-five receiver in program history, maybe the best tight end in program history, probably the best true freshman in program history at running back, three offensive linemen who played in the NFL, a quarterback who started multiple NFL games (with a winning record!), and the best kicker in program history.
Yes, that team played a lot of close games, but it wasn't because the offense was totally inept – like Michigan State's – it was because they scored enough, and were talented enough on both sides of the ball to control the game, the field position battle and the clock from start to finish.
But yes, your team that's scored a single touchdown against its last four non-Rutgers Power Five opponents is kind of like that.
See me in three weeks.

Ex-staffer: Dantonio ignored warnings on recruit
A former Michigan State football staffer said under oath that head coach Mark Dantonio ignored his assistants' warnings while recruiting a player who subsequently was convicted of sexually assaulting a fellow student on campus and that important information was omitted from an investigation into how the athletic department handled a pair of sexual misconduct allegations involving football players.
Former Michigan State recruiting director Curtis Blackwell is suing Dantonio, former athletic director Mark Hollis, former university president Lou Anna Simon and two university police officers for wrongful termination and unlawful arrest. Blackwell claimed in court records filed on Thursday that he was made a scapegoat amid fallout from the sexual misconduct allegations against Spartan players in early 2017. Blackwell was suspended shortly after the first incident, and his year-to-year contract with the football program was not renewed later that year. Dantonio cited "philosophical differences" shortly after they parted ways when asked why Blackwell's contract was not renewed.
Blackwell was arrested in February 2017 on suspicion of interfering with or obstructing a police investigation of the sexual assault allegations involving then-freshmen football players Donnie Corley, Demetric Vance and Josh King. He was not charged with a crime. Michigan State hired the Jones Day law firm to review how the institution and athletic department leaders responded to the sexual assault allegations. Blackwell declined to speak with Jones Day's investigators, who concluded that Blackwell broke school policy by not properly reporting what he knew about the alleged sexual assault. The Jones Day report cleared Dantonio and all other Michigan State employees of any wrongdoing.
"It seems as though Michigan State used Jones Day to clear the football staff of any wrongdoing and make it all look as if I was the only person that did anything wrong," Blackwell said in a deposition for his lawsuit.
A Michigan State spokeswoman said the university does not have any comment in response to Blackwell's claims. Dantonio did not respond to attempts to contact him Thursday afternoon.
The three players were later sentenced to three years of probation after pleading guilty to charges of seduction.
During the course of the Jones Day investigation in 2017, another football player, defensive end Auston Robertson, sexually assaulted the girlfriend of one of his teammates. He was dismissed from the team when he was charged with a crime, and later pleaded guilty and was sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.
Blackwell said in his deposition that multiple assistant coaches asked Dantonio not to offer Robertson a spot on the roster because he had a history of troubling behavior. Blackwell said he witnessed defensive line coach Ron Burton tell Dantonio that he didn't want Robertson to be on the same campus as his daughter.
"So for Ron Burton to say it was that bad that he didn't want his daughter around him, I knew he had some real serious sexual issues," Blackwell said in his deposition.
Burton did not respond to a message left for him Thursday asking him if he recalls the incident.
Robertson, a highly touted recruit from Indiana, was charged with misdemeanor battery during his senior year of high school. Police said he "rubbed and grabbed" a female classmate's groin against her will in the school's lobby. The female student told police Robertson had also harassed or touched her inappropriately on two other occasions. Robertson, who had also been arrested on vandalism charges months earlier, was kicked off the high school's football team and banned from the high school's campus while Michigan State was recruiting him.
Blackwell said in his deposition that Michigan State assistant coaches learned about other troubling incidents in Robertson's past when they attempted to vet him further during the early months of 2017.
Police reports and court documents show that Robertson was involved in a string of incidents where he was accused of sexual violence and two forceful rape attempts during his high school years. He was not charged with crimes in any of those cases. A university spokeswoman said in 2018 that the school was not aware of any of those incidents when Robertson was accepted as a student.
Dantonio said in a statement when Robertson was dismissed that the school had vetted him using "all resources available to us to thoroughly review his situation."
"We've never intentionally brought a guy in here where I say, 'Hey, that guy is going to be a bad guy,'" Dantonio told reporters at a news conference in June 2017. "Obviously, we took a risk as we said earlier, and vetted the young man."
Blackwell said that he, Burton and fellow assistant Dave Warner all suggested the team steer clear of Robertson in a meeting with Dantonio.
"I want to say [Warner] spoke with the principal and the coach ... and they had nothing good to say about him," Blackwell said. "[Warner] couldn't really find anybody that could say anything good about Auston."
Blackwell said Dantonio "overrode" other staff members who didn't want him on campus, telling them he would make Robertson his "pet project." Blackwell said Dantonio met with Robertson on a weekly basis during the freshman's time on campus and created a special program to mentor and monitor him.
When asked for more details by ESPN about their vetting process in 2018, Dantonio and other Michigan State officials declined to answer.
