State's inability to stop the run is stunning. I thought the quickness of MSU's D line would mean something. So far, it has meant nothing.

- If there was a knock on Russell Wilson at NC State, it was passing accuracy. That was a terrible throw on the interception.

- Kirk Cousins is throwing the ball well. That's the hope for MSU. That one big running play was an aberration. State will have to throw the ball to win this game.

- It's like there is an emotional hangover at Spartan Stadium after the win over Michigan. Granted, Wisconsin took the crowd out of it early. But they really weren't into at the beginning.
