Michigan State’s playing a football game, so we have to tell you about something Kenneth Walker III did.

This time, the Wake Forest transfer jumped over a defender and dove for the end zone as a defender was trying to bring him down. He got the pylon to pick up his 6th touchdown of the season.

Walker III continues to open eyes in his first season in East Lansing. He’s the B1G’s leading rusher, averaging 138.5 yards per game entering Week 5 play, and has rejuvenated Michigan State’s run game.

The Spartans are currently leading Western Kentucky 28-16 in the 2nd quarter. A big reason for the lead is redshirt junior wide receiver Jayden Reed, who has a punt return and a receiving touchdown already. Michigan State quarterback Payton Thorne has completed 9 of 12 passes for 217 yards and a touchdown, as well.

You can catch the rest of the game on FS1.
