Now that Michigan State's football season has come to a close, let's break down Coach Jonathan Smith's first season with the Green and White.

As the snow piled up to replicate a backyard game, the hearty fans at Spartans Stadium remained loud while witnessing history. Michigan State topped Penn State 30-27 to mark the program’s biggest single-season turnaround with an undefeated mark at home before a Peach Bowl victory a month later capped an improbable 11-2 year.

Michigan State football's season is officially over. The Spartans put out one final disappointing performance to end the 2024 regular season with a blowout loss against Rutgers. Michigan State lost the game by the final score of 41-14.
