Michigan State football at Notre Dame: Live updates

Michigan State will take a step up in weight class on Saturday, Sept. 19 when it travels to No. 3 Notre Dame for a prime-time battle. The Spartans' 2-0 start over two Mid-American Conference opponents should be considered a success, but the Irish are a different type of test.

Getting running back Cam Edwards going figures to be key. Through two games, Edwards has rushed for 250 yards and three touchdowns. If the Spartans can win the line of scrimmage, it could prove to be the difference in keeping the game close into the fourth quarter.
