the Spartans were able to overcome some significant Game 1 hiccups to earn a victory in Smith’s first outing prowling the sidelines. MSU’s defense came up with a must-have stop in the fourth quarter to let heralded quarterback Aidan Chiles and the Spartan offense kneel out a 16-10 victory over the visiting Owls. MSU, off to a 1-0 start in the Smith era, dives right into Big Ten play next week at Maryland.
