Michigan State Football, Ohio State Football, Deshaun Tate, Michigan State Basketball, Clock Controversy and Weekend Winners.

On today's "Current Sports with Al Martin" two one-point wins from MSU were the story for the weekend. First of all, MSU football took Ohio State down to the wire to a 17-16 game, but the Buckeyes pulled it out. Several controversial decisions summed up the game, and Al, engineer Isaac Constans, production assistant Kamen Kessler and a litany of callers take sides. Al provides his prediction for next week's Ohio State-Michigan rivalry game. Then, it's onto the next controversy, as MSU men's basketball eked out a controversial victory against Florida Gulf Coast. Did a referee error give the Spartans an easy win? Both Al and Isaac blow a casket, and CBS Sports radio producer, host and columnist Deshaun Tate weighs in. Finally, the cast wishes everybody a Happy Thanksgiving going forward.
