When Michigan State linebacker Joe Bachie fills out his goal cards prior to games, he lists most of the same things each time. Win. Stay healthy. Lead. Force turnovers.

He’s also done something that has never shown up on his goal card: win Big Ten defensive player of the week honors. And he’s done it twice.
