On this episode of Monday Night Therapy, Minnie and Fred welcome Matt Sheehan from Locked On Spartans to preview Nebraska–Michigan State. Matt says MSU’s offense has taken a big step: QB Aiden Childs is smarter with the ball and dangerous on designed or scramble runs, with NFL-caliber targets like Nick Marsh. The offensive line is improved but dealing with injuries, including a sidelined left tackle. The problem is defense—especially the pass rush. After allowing big yards to USC and even Youngstown State, MSU has struggled to generate pressures or sacks, leaving the secondary exposed. Run defense is “serviceable,” special teams are a real strength (elite punter, solid kicker/returns), and the fanbase is split between “be patient in Year 2” and “this isn’t good enough.” Matt predicts a shootout, calling it a “first to 30” game and picking Nebraska 34–29, while warning that Childs could keep it close if protection holds.

In the back half, the crew switches to birthday fun as Minnie turns 50, sharing throwback photos from the Coronation community—cue Zubaz, letterman jackets, and 2008 haircuts—while good-natured ribbing flies. They close feeling optimistic about the weekend, plugging upcoming shows, and signing off with a hearty “Go Big Red.”
