MSU v. U-M on Saturday, Oct. 29 in East Lansing.

For the first time since 2012, the Paul Bunyan Trophy will now get cozy in Ann Arbor.

The Michigan State football team came up short at Spartan Stadium against in-state rival Michigan, 32-23 on Saturday.

MSU has lost six straight games for the first time since the early 1980’s.  Michigan is now the number two college football team in the nation.

“Current Sports” host Al Martin re-caps the rivalry game.
