That is all they needed as MSU couldn't get much going in the offensive end. Only two penalties were called the entire game. And the chances they did get seemed to miss the net.

Suzy Merchant knew Penn State would be a tough opponent Sunday afternoon. She just thought Michigan State would be a good team, too. The Spartans struggled on offense and defense, shooting far below their averages and allowing nearly as many points in the second half as the nation's second-ranked scoring defense had been permitting in entire games.

There are times when Branden Dawson looks like a player coming off a major injury. Since tearing his left anterior cruciate ligament in March 2012, Dawson was kept away from the game and has struggled regaining many of the physical intangibles that made him so dominant in his freshman season. At times, it shows up in his conditioning, defensive effectiveness and even in his signature work in the paint at both ends of the floor.

Since that victory, MSU has only won a single game, accumulating a weak 1-7-2 record.

Home is where the highlights are made, but the road is where championships will be won. That was the case last season, and the early part of the 2012-13 Big Ten basketball season has shown that if you want to win the Big Ten, you have to win on the road. Actually, make that “win enough.”
