Mel Tucker gives details on Michigan State ‘Spartan Football Kickoff’

Once again, Michigan State football will forego the traditional ‘spring game’ for more of a practice format, as the team continues to struggle with offseason injuries, particularly on the defensive line.

Here is Tucker describing the event:

“We’re gonna have more of a practice-type format with some scrimmaging as opposed to a game. That’s worked for us in the past,” Tucker said. “Just with our numbers, it’s gonna actually be more competitive for us and we can get a lot more out of it as opposed to trying to split the team up and create some type of game.”

Gates open for the event at 12:30pm E.T. and the event itself starts at 2pm E.T..
