BIGGEST UPSET: Can Michigan State football STUN Washington for STATEMENT under Pat Fitzgerald?

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 18:00:00 GMT

Michigan State Spartans aim to shock the college football world as an underdog, setting sights on upsetting the Washington Huskies in a pivotal November Big Ten matchup. Is a Michigan State turnaround under Pat Fitzgerald on the horizon, or will Washington’s veteran depth and explosive young talent prevail? The conversation focused on Michigan State’s quest to restore its physical identity, while questioning if Washington’s recent struggles on the road and locker room dynamics—especially regarding quarterback Demond Williams—could create an opening for the Spartans. A key theme that emerged was roster construction: Washington boasts impressive returning production and offensive line strength, but faces concerns at running back and receiver. The discussion explored Michigan State’s depth issues in the trenches and the development of quarterback Alessio Milivojevic. Several points were raised, including expectations for both programs, lessons from past heart-breaking losses, and the critical role of culture and leadership during a grueling Big Ten schedule. Can Michigan State pull off the unthinkable? Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
