It was a game that wasn't supposed to be close. MSU was expected to put up big offensive numbers against Illinois Saturday, answering any questions about the lingering effects of the Notre Dame collapse. But after a disappointing 23-20 loss, the Spartans failed to respond to that question and raised many more about an offense that put up just 259 total yards. "We should be able to put up 40 points on Illinois," senior center Kyle Cook said.

College students who use vitamins as sources of nutrients often do so because their hectic schedules can force them to eat foods high in convenience but unsavory for their health. But vitamins can't replace a healthy diet and should only be used as a backup for healthy food choices, experts say. Peggy Apostolos, an Ingham Regional Medical Center dietitian, said one misconception about vitamins and supplements is that they can replace foods that have the same nutrients. "People might think that they don't have to eat a healthy diet, and will think, 'If I don't have any protein, I'll just take a multi-vitamin,'" Apostolos said. That assumption is false because nutrients in vitamins aren't as easily absorbed into the body as the same nutrients in food, she said. Nutrients in vitamins could pass through the body while nutrients from food would be absorbed. Also, vitamins do not contain essential protein, fat or carbohydrate, and won't give you the energy that food will, she said. Eating nutritious food should always come before taking vitamins, with the exception being people who are allergic or intolerant to certain foods, said Ronda Bokram, registered dietitian and health educator at Olin Health Center. Since the body can store a limited amount of each nutrient, excess amounts of nutrients don't necessarily lead to any improvements, Apostolos said.

Three-year-old Ellie Yonker, of Lansing, watched the parade procession from the arms of her father, Jeff Yonker, as he pointed out this year's grand marshal riding past on Friday evening.

MSU alumni, students and East Lansing-area residents gathered downtown and on campus to watch the famous frog in what was called one of MSU's largest Homecoming parades. The parade began at the Hannah Community Center and ended on campus at IM Sports-Circle.
Saturday was an embarrassing day for MSU as a whole. As if the debacle on the football field was not bad enough, what was going on in the student section was just as bad, if not worse. At any point during the game, you could see a couple of Illini fans in the student section, but no one was sitting within six rows of them because MSU students were throwing so much trash at them. While I'm sure these students from Illinois expected a little bit of harassment, what was going on was completely uncalled-for.
