Jonathan Smith got to see the conference as a Big Ten coach for the first time, and it was a rollercoaster of a game. It started badly, with starting lineman Kristian Phillips appearing on the injury report. Phillips was the highest-rated lineman for the Spartans last week. Even worse, it does not appear to be a short-term injury, either. Smith said it was likely “long-term, potentially the season” for the described lower-body injury.
