MSU's Xavier Henderson says focus turns quickly to Michigan: 'We've been thinking about it for awhile'
The No. 10 Michigan State Spartans (7-0; 4-0 in B1G play) are on a solid path for the Eastern Divisional title. Michigan State survived a serious road test versus the Indiana Hoosiers 20-15, who was fresh off the bye-week.
Normally, teams are allowed to take 24 hours to reflect on its win or loss, but according to Michigan State safety Xavier Henderson.
After the game versus Indiana, Henderson that the team may take all 34 hours to reflect on Indiana. Michigan State wants to prepare for its rivals in the Michigan Wolverines as soon as possible. Henderson said it is a game the team has been thinking about all year long.
Henderson concedes they might not take all 24 hours before thinking about Michigan. Said it’s a game they’ve been “thinking about for a while” but adds they’ll stick to their process
