What's Next For MSU Football After Lackluster Regular Season?

Mark Dantonio
Al Martin / WKAR-MSU

Current Sports host Al Martin gives his thoughts on the Michigan State win over Maryland this past Saturday, which made the program bowl eligible for the 12th time in 13 seasons under head coach Mark Dantonio. But, how much is the accomplishment really worth and how soon can the Spartans be a legit competitor in the Big Ten East? That, and more, in this segment! 

Al Martin is the host and producer of Beyond the Score, WKAR’s award-winning sports television series. In addition, Al is the host, producer, and director of WKAR’s digital music series Streetlight Sessions. He also serves as a sports reporter for WKAR News.
