In the trying year that has been the COVID-19 pandemic, intermixed with the unusual hiring process of Mel Tucker, what exactly are the realistic expectations for the MSU football team?

On today's Current Sports with Al Martin we tackle the expectations of this year's Michigan State football team. Mel Tucker's preparation heading into his first game has been quite the ride and very unusual, so,... does this give him pass when it comes to the win and loss column? Also, Al tells you why star NFL wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has now been banned from LSU and there will be a new head coach of the Penn State men's basketball team. That, and more!

Episode 1699
