Alessio Milivojevic - May cede starting role to Chiles Milivojevic may not start against Penn State on Saturday after he replaced Aidan Chiles as the Spartans' starter against Minnesota, per Jim Comparoni of Rivals.com.

Impact Michigan State is reportedly looking at all options in its quarterback room. Chiles was benched against the Gophers, and Milivojevic responded by tossing for 311 yards and a score on over 71 percent completion. Still, the Spartans are leaving all doors open at quarterback and there's no telling who might start and who there might be packages for Saturday against Penn State.

Aidan Chiles - May be re-inserted as starter Chiles may re-assume his role as QB1 for Michigan State against Penn State on Saturday, per Jim Comparoni of Rivals.com.

Impact Chiles was benched for Alessio Milivojevic ahead of Michigan State's overtime loss to Minnesota. Chiles has struggled at times this season, and Milivojevic certainly played well against the Gophers, tossing for 311 yards and one touchdown while completing 71.4 percent of his throws. It remains a process for the Spartans this week to determine their starter, and it's a possibility that there's packages for both gunslingers.

Rodney Bullard Jr. - Leading receiver in loss Bullard reeled in 4 of 5 targets for 102 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 23-20 overtime defeat versus Minnesota.

The former Valdosta State transfer connected with quarterback Alessio Milivojevic on a 71-yard catch and run in the third quarter, putting Michigan State on the board and bringing them within three points at the time. He will hope to build on this performance when the Spartans host Penn State following the team's upcoming bye.

Nick Marsh - Moderate day in loss Marsh hauled in 4 of 6 targets for 75 yards during Saturday's 23-20 overtime loss to Minnesota.

Impact Marsh managed to put together another solid performance against Minnesota, totaling 75 yards for the second consecutive contest. The 6-foot-3 receiver has done what he can in a struggling Michigan State offense recently, catching 24 passes for 291 yards and two touchdowns over the team's last four games. He will hope to make an impact when the Spartans host Penn State following the team's upcoming bye.

Omari Kelly - High volume in loss Kelly reeled in 8 of 10 targets for 94 yards during Saturday's 23-20 overtime loss against Minnesota.

Impact Though he was held without a touchdown on the day, Kelly led the team in receptions and targets against the Golden Gophers, totaling 94 yards on the day. The 6-foot receiver has been held relatively quiet over the last several weeks, totaling just nine receptions for 118 yards through the team's last four games before Saturday. His next chance will come against Penn State following Michigan State's upcoming bye.

NOVEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Elijah Tau-Tolliver - Leading rusher in defeat Tau-Tolliver tallied 11 rushes for 127 yards and reeled in 1 of 2 targets for four yards during Saturday's 23-20 overtime defeat versus Minnesota.

Impact Tau-Tolliver put up his best performance since joining the Spartans in the off-season, running for a season-high 127 yards on an impressive 11.5 yards per attempt. Most of the 6-foot-1 running back's production came on an 85-yard scamper in the fourth quarter, setting up Michigan State's second touchdown of the day. While he's been locked in a timeshare within the MSU backfield throughout the season, he will hope to build off this performance moving forward, starting with a home battle against Penn State following Michigan State's upcoming bye.

Brandon Tullis - Scores in defeat Tullis recorded 14 carries for 51 yards and one touchdown and caught 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 23-20 overtime loss against Minnesota.

Impact Tullis put together a solid outing for the Spartans against Minnesota, running for 51 yards and a touchdown on the day. The 6-foot-1 running back found the end zone on a one-yard plunge in the fourth quarter, giving the Spartans a seven-point lead at the time. Despite being locked in a timeshare in the Michigan State backfield, Tullis has now scored in back-to-back contests and will look to build off his performance against Penn State following the team's upcoming bye.

Alessio Milivojevic - Productive in loss Milivojevic was 20-for-28 passing for 311 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 23-20 overtime defeat against Minnesota. He also had 13 rushes for -53 yards.

Impact Milivojevic performed admirably while stepping in for Michigan State starter Aidan Chiles, throwing for 311 yards and a touchdown while completing 71 percent of his passes on the day. The 6-foot-2 quarterback connected with receiver Rodney Bullard on a 71-yard catch and run in the third quarter, getting the Spartans on the board for the day and bringing them within three points at the time. Given Milivojevic's solid performance on Saturday, it remains to be seen whether he will continue to start for the Spartans or if Chiles will be given another opportunity to earn back his starting role. A home matchup against Penn State awaits following the team's upcoming bye.
