[NU Sports] And the second half ...

[John Labbe]

My prediction on the possibility of a 6-6 waiver is that MSU will beat 
Hawaii next week, and they'll get the waiver into the Motor City Bowl.  
I suppose if MSU loses, we'd have a shot at a 6-6 waiver given the 
relative lack of bowl eligible teams, but then we'll be listening to 
the talk about how we don't really deserve a bowl bid (although our big 
wins and 5-3 Big Ten record would quiet that talk somewhat this year).  
I just can't believe we gave up all those points.  The big 
disappointment for me tonight was the fact that we never sacked the QB 
and hardly ever got close to him.
