Michigan State hopes to end skid at Wisconsin

Michigan State attempts to end its two-game losing streak today but hasn’t exactly picked the best spot to do it.

The Spartans haven’t beaten Wisconsin here at Camp Randall Stadium since 2001 and the Badgers haven’t lost at home since 2009. They have won 21 straight at home, second in the nation only to LSU, which has won 22 consecutive home games.

Michigan State gets tight end Dion Sims back in the starting lineup today while left tackle will once again be manned by redshirt freshman Donavon Clark, who got his first start last week against Michigan.

Dan France is recovering from a concussion and should get some playing time today, but how much remains to be seen.

On the defensive side of the ball, sophomore Taiwan Jones gets the nod at STAR linebacker ahead of senior Chris Norman. Norman started last week against Michigan and Jones started two weeks ago against Iowa.
