'Off-kilter' MSU routed in 1st game without Tucker

Interim head coach Harlon Barnett took over on Sunday after Tucker was suspended amid an ongoing investigation into claims that he sexually harassed sexual assault awareness speaker Brenda Tracy.

The Spartans defense gave up 713 yards of offense to Washington, a record for any Michigan State team. Barnett said he didn't realize it was a record, but he's going to remember it and remember everything that took place in this game without excuses for what distractions may or may not have been out there this week for his team.

"We are a week away from what happened," Barnett said."So, those guys, that's out of their system, we played the game, played a really great team. And so, I think they're ready to go and understand that all of our goals are still in front of us, so that's a good thing.

"The first day when it came out, it was a shock to everyone, but after that we did a great job moving on because we had an opponent to get ready for," Mosley said."We couldn't live in the past or start to cry, because Washington didn't care what was going on with us in our program. So, we had to go out there and prepare for this game."
