The Michigan State football program is riding a high after their 37-33 victory over the Michigan Wolverines. Now, the Spartans are poised to enter the first College Football Playoff poll of the season Tuesday in the top 10, and possibly ranked in the all-important top four.
Now it’s time to hear from Spartans head coach Mel Tucker during his weekly news conference Monday at 12:30 p.m.

This Saturday, the Spartans (8-0, 5-0 Big Ten) face the Purdue Boilermakers at 3:30 p.m. on ABC. The Boilermakers (5-3, 3-2) have been alternating wins and losses in their past six games. The highlight of the season is a win at-then second-ranked Iowa in mid-October. Last week, Purdue traveled to Nebraska and picked up a 28-23 win over the Cornhuskers.
Tucker is scheduled to speak at 12:30 p.m. You can follow along by watching the feed below.
