"Rocky, Rocky, Rocky" was the chant heard Saturday after Rocky Lombardi made a very successful first career start for Michigan State as the Spartans took down the Purdue Boilermakers. The score was 23-13 when all was said and done in East Lansing and it was good for players and fans alike, who had just dealt with a loss to the University of Michigan at home. Most were busy talking about Lombardi after the win, whether it was praise coming from coach Mark Dantonio or inquiries about his name. One thing is clear, MSU loves Rocky. Well, for this week, at least. MORE ►Michigan State observations from a win against Purdue ► Grading Michigan State's win against Purdue ► Idle Michigan still fifth in national rankings |
