to start the Jonathan Smith era off on the right [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] foot they take the field for the first time under their new head coach 9 and0 on Friday night game since 2011 and welcoming in Florida Atlantic tonight to kick off the season Spartans versus from Spartan Stadium in beautiful East Lancing Michigan striping up the stadium tonight and a soldout crowd so now we get to see the 18-year-old Captain Aiden childes his first snap in the Michigan State uniform wants to throw it on his first snap going downfield bobbl and was that picked off inbounds off the Kum it was not he wanted montoi Foster and in on the coverage was bugs Brown fantastic effort here by bugs Brown because monori Foster is trying to get that second effort now bugs Brown the feet are in bounds but not before he is able to control that football great job locating it we're going to get a closer look here that left foot that right foot but it's just too late still tremendous does he absolutely established control when that left toe is still on the ground that's the one that I'm don't I mean I like it has an incom pass but you know when you look at it and look at that left to see what Brian Bank says now fer going to go down in the Michigan State Defense aners back Chris pole at the Forefront there his first tackle of the season of bigl one on their roster now TRS at guard and he ends elante Brown over the- middle receiver who's hoping to have a big year this season if you can have him break out in mi this receiving cord could be big for Michigan State and if you can have a quarterback that for Michigan State the childes goes to the air again once the Deep shot this time in one-on one one at intentions for Glover there is a flag out this could and probably should be a first out for tonight I've already heard from him a couple of times so up near Midfield now they go to Carter leading rusher from last season got a gaping hole in that right side led by a good block from Christian Phillip ambushes helmet a linebacker for Florida Atlantic so third and six how can Char handle his third down ball comes out nearly the second turnover of this opening quarter for Michigan State and that's fake it Venture pressured and blocks [Applause] safety dcoin D first points of the season for Michigan State put two on the board points in the new era of football I hope he walks right over to his offense and say you thought you were going to get the first point D is not the biggest guy but what he has is a motor you see him Blow by that safe little room for brown got a blocking some room on this left side out to the 40 and sets up the offense with some really good field position gain of 32 [Music] third and 12 and taken one deep shot in this drive they need 12 here did they get enough on the first career catch for Nick Marsh Belling they brought in motion to try to block and get this two yards with parter where it looks like they're marking it oh fake it a Carter roll out munis again first down and more the D inside of the red zone for the first time today but that doesn't mean you cannot take your eyes off number 12 third and seven they look that direction it's Belling instead blocking for foster and he got dropped down by Eddie Williams by the ankles and the ball came out at the end and it's going to go to Florida Atlantic so the second Michigan State turnover absolutely you have to step on that belief as early as possible Michigan state has not done that yet Venter the transfer from Marshall slides down and then and there goes the FL so this is very interesting because the Michigan State coaching staff actually [Music] told don't even have their jerseys dirty yet so now penter designed run another slide of the keeper settle in as a group offensively we had a couple procedure things obviously finishing dries St putting the ball on the ground that's all we got to stay aggressive we still want to be able to mix the thing throwing and running it so really pleasing where our defense kind of keeping us suround this thing thanks coach so here yet another play where fenter is sliding and it leads to some contact late both unfortunately Jason this is let's see see the slide here it's and unfortunately Malik Spencer is flirting with ejection that that's that is not to justify Malik spener who that is clear targeting so they bring five on third down dark over the middle intercepted it's Angelo gross with the pick it's been a turnover fast early on and Michigan State takes it right back after they gave it away for a second time 35 starts of experience coming into the season for gross we just saw Malik Spencer get disqualified gross steps up gets the pick and the Spartan offense takes over when we come back from East [Music] Lon third and eight Fifth Third Down of the day for Michigan State they want oneon-one here and that is out of the reach of alante brown Jason it was out of his reach cuz he stopped running and you're probably going to see Aiden CH go right up to banre will go to the air a rare throw second interception of the first half for Michigan State and this time it's Martinez who has it he is dodging through traffic has just subbed in for the ejected Malik Spencer and gets his int how about some defense the kai Martin as catches that ball and immediately turns into a punt returner cam fer lets that ball sail but that doesn't Overlook the tremendous coverage out there on the outside but when the ball sails like that that's about the easiest interception Martinez is going to get fantastic job by this defense having their off the umbrella so it is third down one for five on third down today second trip into the Red Zone fumbled the last time can to get points this time it's Charles using his legs Charles into the end zone for his first touchdown in the Michigan State [Music] uniform Zone number a an offense that has moved the ball but has struggled the designed quarterback run you saw Nate Carter first through the line there and Chow just follows him to the end zone spinning his way to six points touchdown run and Jonathan Kim caps on the icing on the cake there as Hall you'll see the mall throughout the year benter not facing pressure this time finds Campbell who slips out of the initial contact but did not get enough for a first down doing a enough to slow him down as Martinez would his first rushing touchdown thanks Danny Kender Miller leading the way there for a big run it's KRON Lynch Adams he hits the second level he hits the end zone 63 yards but guess on who set the tone look at that Center Tanner Miller washing his guy out of there KRON Lynch Adams could crawl to the end zone if he wants it look at this black tan Miller oh my God nope still driving still driving still driving still driving and he looks up Baner in the ows yet to convert on third down they will hear those as he slides down got to be careful and he pops up so first down for Florida Atlantic Miss to take over this QB spot he drops back good protection up front but a coverage sack downfield the fan will roll out and there is a flag down it you would think in a play like that this could potentially be holding you could hear the crowd erupt a little bit there's a there's a pretty strong argument for holding on the left side of that offensive line but we'll see if that's the actual call personal foul hands to the Bas defense the 55 15 y the Run automatic first down so they get hands to the face instead on Roberts and benture drops it off CJ Campbell makes the catch all trying to pull him down got some help toward the tail end there this field goal for Carter Davis coming from 43 here rather they had their short yardage kicker in Morgan Suarez who kicks him typically from 25 and comes back out and now slings it over the middle and it is caught by Jack velling his teammate at Oregon State the Corvalis connection playing out here offense possibly throughout the course of the Season stles again working off that run game like you said earlier as they fake it and roll out I've seen that multiple times extended the play which he can do but couldn't hook up with Geron Glover that time you mentioned earlier about that chemistry they got Isaiah Johnson in now they go deep they were looking once again for Glover had a couple of DBS back in coverage Jaden Williams do you really like how this Florida Atlantic defense was one of them shading that route 88 rushing yards for this Florida Atlantic offense to just nine passing yards they're going to try to run it again here designed for cam Spence sure slipped the initial tackle then got hit by Charles Brantley who's back after he missed the last nine games comprised mostly of transfers the wide receiver for FAU so they're still trying to get the chemistry down pressure from the backside that pass is caught over the middle this time a a rare play through the air for FAU they needed 10 picked up 11 it is Hayes on so now it's third and short he'll opt to run it and they won't get there dragged down in the back field great play from Chris Boogle loss of [Music] four time out he's one of the eight returners on this defense into the locker room they had an explosive Run play in this half with KRON Lynch Adams 60 plus yards to the house they give it an eight Carter to run out the first half of play coming over from Marshall learning his new team te mates his team will get the ball to begin this second half Michigan State's defense started to really step up toward the tail end of that second quarter the vont under new defensive coordinator Joe Rossi who came over from Minnesota now back to the ground game Zuber Moy being tracked out of bounds there over to the Spartan sideline gain of one firmly out of bounds Dylan Tatum just trying to get him on the ground but that right there is one of the most dangerous things you can do as a tackler now look he's off balance he's trying to chase him down he's not trying to hurt him but you see that compromising [Applause] position that compromising position that Zuber Moy was they fake the Run rarely do have they gone to the air in this game oneon-one it was maid on the coverage and looks like he might get hit with the penalty here as he was looking for leers at Arizona State experienced guy was flying around in practice yesterday Baner goes back to the air they try to set up some blocks they do have a first down pass is complete over on that far side has J Panther has scrambled multiple times on third down he gets pops absolutely rocked in the back field and he gets the fer so this from 44 and Spartan fans celebrating because that is no good so a big stand for the Michigan State Defense first or more three personal fouls by yeah and D's Under Pressure using his legs to improvise and extend the play directing traffic got to get a lot of this back though scoots into some traffic and got hit the effort the competitiveness of the 18-year-old on display on that play did pick up that they Ed one for seven on third down today pressure got there quick it was tally who had the sack on the last drive that got in the face at his own 45 you could be looking at possibly some really good field position here he is going to run up in fair catch this right up near the 50 offers including Michigan State BL clock winding down here third and five they opt to run it trusting Carter with getting this first down we'll see where they mark it it's going to be flip it out opposite way this time with c gets a block from this newly constructed offensive line Stanton R got out there one of the the backup tackles gain of eight back right if you're going there I'll meet you yes sir Tri got that ball away in time and is on time caught by Isaiah Johnson who came into this game with no career catch it they've got Lynch Adams in at running back he already has one touchdown today get swung down there I'm keeping they go back to Nate Carter this time flip-flopping the running backs the tight end they had on that play had both Belling and Michael munis in the block on that right side all the came over from Oregon state with child with with head coach Jonathan Smith and now Charles is looking to The End Zone it is intercepted it is intercepted and headed back the other way chance for a big return from Philip Dunham the former Indiana hooer who cuts it back well inside of Spartan territory second Red Zone turnover of the day a return of 58 for Dunham you talk about being comfortable Philip Dunham spending so much time at I he's been in this St he is familiar he jumps that route he sniffs it the entire way so instinctual was so instinctual as a hooer and here goes back home to Florida but the playmaking came with him that is very one for eight on third down Flor Atlantic look at fer improvise and he's ultimately brought down a flag came flying in late and there was a slight grab of the face mask at the tail end and you wonder if that was where it was but when was he down as well and you have F grabbing his knee it looks like he's he's walking it off but personal foul face mask Defense number 94 15 y benter has to switch sides intended for his tight end Zeke Moore but incomplete Cal holiday was out there on the coverage roll it out to the end zone they go for a touchdown to pull within one score jwn plat on the receiving end and a big play for FAU off that int it is a one possession game seven plays 40 yards they go and you're going to see miscommunication on the back end watch both DBS go to the flat leaving a wide open J sha Platt when you are in man coverage and unfortunately miscommunication give it an easy six important extra point for Suarez and he does make it a six-point game Charles has the Target open finds him it's Monto Foster who puts his foot in the ground and gets out past the 40 for a Michigan State first down in gain of 16 to close out the third fight we got last there was a jump this should be a free play they lob it up to Glover and now we'll get the verdicts May throw some socks down there if we're having laundry day again another big 10 opponent but lost by six Illinois last year they're down six today and KRON Lynch Adams continues to bounce and break off tackles brought down by bugs brown but not after a big gain of 10 of the legendary here handed off right back to Kon Lynch Adams broke through two tackles then gets cut down Jackson Ambush finished off the tackle with the momentum is really moving now with the hot and they're looking to rectify that now empty back field for Charles I haven't seen a lot of that and Foster scooped that up he looks like he did High 258 getting some weight in especially on the left side of that old line there fourth and one a big fourth and one here oh Lynch Adams got met by the Florida Atlantic dline what a job to step up in a clutched moment and the Spartans continue to struggle is his Mantra players can walk in at any moment that they want big third and four here that is complete a first down and more to Amari Hayes down just six here fenter will keep it running away inside out of the 50 he goes got to scoot past Bogle there and picks up another FAU first down some motion to work with they give it to moy he did not get there not enough for the first down now decision time four down territory as that was plat in motion benture right that direction then got hit in the back field turnover on Downs B play right here down the middle big play for the FAU defense Charles wants it all down field incomplete looking for monor foster DayDay Hill the lock down quarter for FAU and on the coverage that time a drive here where they're trying to take the lead Venture dangerous Crossing route it is caught though by Hayes benter pressure off the edge gross got there but couldn't bring him down now gross gets back up but fer gets it away was this caught in bounds found Dom Henry benter Will Roll designed to play to that side you talked about his legs slides down Turner came in and they throw the flag for the second time today on that slide Malik Spencer was ejected earlier in the game for targeting and now they'll look at Turner's last hit it's now that that forearm shiver gets involved for for those people wondering no he's not leading with the crown of his helmet but that forearm shiver making contact put the helmet we'll see after review there is no Target on the play however number one slide started at the 41 yd line therefore he is that the ball is dead where he gets himself up at the 41 that is short of the line of game as a result we have a turnover on downs we will then enforce the late hit as well as the unsp sports Lon foul both on number seven it'll be first down Michigan State all right just three for 12 on third down today this the biggest of the day Charles with good protection got it away a strong throw incomplete he wanted Glover and bugs Brown was on the coverage just two for 12 on third down today pressure was from Bogle Baner escapes but to the sideline and did not get nearly enough for a first down so now you go a fourth down he wants some more fourth and eight for Florida Atlantic huge play here maybe the biggest of the game bener over the middle and that is caught hold in Hayes with the grab third and 15 and a big one for C fer toal trying to track him down fer directing traffic and they're going to have another fourth down coming up to try to extend this game just a gain of one there Angelo gross came over benter steps up green jerseys in his face and he is dragged down got that off but it's tally who was big earlier in this one showcasing the depth of the Michigan State dline to come up big and effectively end this one barring a turnover and you it took four years at Oregon State before he was able to get his first win and full bid regardless of what happened tonight I'm telling you that will happen in half of the time here in East Lansing 1610 going to be the final to get the final handshake there for Jonathan Smith and Tom Herman the final score for our awesome crew Brock phenomenal job Danny Rogers down on the sideline 1610 10 Michigan State going to wrap this one up improv to 12 and0 in Friday night openers mentioned we got volleyball coming up hit and Oregon Aiden Charles gets
