It's a special episode of Can't Read, Can't Write with Matt Sheehan of Locked On Spartans joining us to breakdown MSU's loss to Rutgers, bringing another football season to a close without a bowl game. We look back on a relatively successful hoops trip to Maui, celebrate women's hoops zooming up the NET rankings, and note that hockey isn't disappointing us.
Like a Thanksgiving dinner slowly reaching it's boiling point, we air some grievances we have with the state of MSU athletics and football more specifically.

We then head off Grand River to discuss the AG clearing MSU, complications in athlete compensation, and a burgeoning downtown scene.
We wrap up with your Twitter questions. Join us next week @spartan_pod
