Shawn and Andrew are joined by Graham Couch of the Lansing State Journal ahead of Michigan State football's huge game against Notre Dame. What does Graham make of this MSU team in Pat Fitzgerald's first season? Are there causes for concern ahead of the game against the stacked Notre Dame team?
Plus, the guys discuss the 2026-27 Michigan State basketball team, which is looking loaded in Tom Izzo's 32nd season, but is the roster comparable to one of the most frustrating teams in the Izzo era?
And last but not least, whenever Shawn and Graham come together, we of course have to discuss the "Blue Wall." Is there some truth behind the allegations from MSU fans that there's a quiet Michigan bias in the media and beyond?
All that and more with Graham, Shawn and Andrew.
