A GREAT start to the Spartan weekend last night. Will it be a clean sweep? The ES watched the #13 Spartan hockey team's incredibly chippy performance with a dominating, 3-2 victory at Yost Ice Arena over the Yellow Bellies. This, in combination with the #2 men's basketball team crushing Florida Gulf Coast, 97-58. Can we complete the trifecta with a victory today by the football team vs. Purdue? Come back here for a Live Chat, noon kickoff vs. Purdue.

Speaking of trifecta, the past two years' there have been more of the ES' personal gridder trifecta (MSU victory, scUM loss, ND loss) than probably in the past 30 years combined. Will this weekend be yet another this year? MSU is favored at Purdue, at scUM is an underdog vs. Wisky, as is ND vs. Pittsburgh...
