MSU Football Losing Streak, Bowl Game Chances, College Football, Detroit Lions, Michigan State Hockey, Jason Ruff and Weekend Winners.

Al tries his best to approach the streak systematically, but maybe the reason is simple. Then, a caller remembers the recently passed Drew Sharp. Following that, how about a little hockey chat? Although the team recorded no more wins,  former Current Sports production assistant Jason Ruff sees reason for optimism. Finally, Al and engineer Isaac Constans list off their 'Weekend Winners.'
