Spartans draw scrutiny for rough play

translation from Gholston: I don't give a **** about those penalties and I'd do it again.

Blame part of that on the officials. When you flag a player for throwing a punch, but don't eject him, that's on the zebras.

Michigan played sloppy, never developed any consistency, was simply outplayed by MSU.

As for the officiating..yes it was bad but not a deciding factor. Lets move on

MSU learned that playing physical is the way to play. They learned it in the bowl game. I did not see the whole game and so missed the penalties, but playing physical does not mean personal fouls.

I agree with you on the physical play, however Gholston was caught on camera punching a player. He should have been ejected for that alone, but given that was his 2nd personal foul of the game, definately.

Not making excuses, MSU would have won either way
