Michigan State football needs one win to get bowl eligible. Up next is No. 10 Penn State on the road. But the Spartans could still get in at 5-7.

For the Spartans , that regular-season finale is on the road against 10th-ranked Penn State . Kickoff is 4 p.m. Saturday at Beaver Stadium in University Park, Pennsylvania . And by the time Tucker’s players takes the field, there will be some clarity to if they even still have a remote chance of getting a postseason invite with a 5-7 record .

The Hoosiers put it away in the second OT, 39-31, to devastate the Spartans. Making Saturday at Penn State essentially a must-win moment for them. “In terms of needing to win a game to go to a bowl game, I've been a part of that,” he said. “I've been a part of some losses two-score leads halfway through the fourth quarter. Losing a home game, been through that. Against a rival school, that's happened. But also finding a way to get to a bowl game and ultimately playing well in that game. And winning the game, we can use that as a springboard for next season.

MSU went on to beat Wake Forest in the Pinstripe Bowl to finish 7-6, and Dantonio retired suddenly and somewhat surprisingly a little more than a month later. Lose again, and the chance to get an invitation could still be possible if not enough teams quality for the 82 available bowl game spots.MSU is one of 13 teams entering the weekend 5-6 and among 16 teams that could have a shot at six wins. Buffalo is 5-5 with two games remaining, with its snow-postponed game against Akron to be made up Dec. 2. Appalachian State is 6-5 with two wins over Football Championship Subdivision opponents, only one of which counts toward bowl eligibility.
