The B1G’s winningest quarterback missed last week’s game against Ohio State after suffering a shoulder injury the week before against Maryland. Tyler O’Connor led the Spartans to a win in his first career start.
Cook has a chance to lead Michigan State to the B1G Championship with a victory against Penn State. If the Spartans were to lose, Ohio State would earn the B1G East bid for the title game.
Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET in East Lansing.
