But that afternoon it felt comforting to have the crowds around me. Standing in the middle of the huge hall, it became so clear to me. Maybe turning to history is the only way to make sense of what had happened and what is still to come. You can look at a painting or you can read an ancient poem and you will start to understand how humans have loved, hated and fought with the same intensity since the beginning of time. True, in modernity the weapons are more deadly and the stakes much higher. But in painting, the faces look the same. Even I have to begrudgingly admit, that's the comfort that history gives us.

quarterbacks: While Holiday was ineffec­ tive, LoVecchio was fairly solid. He B- made several key passes on third and fourth down. However, his interception killed Irish hopes for a last-second win. running backs: Fisher did well running ofT the fake reverse early in the game. Jones wasn't that effective hitting the B+ holes and he looked a step too slow.

receivers: As a whole, they made sev­ eral key catches on third and fourth downs. Jenkins looked decent in his B+ college debut.

offensive line: They opened up several holes for the tailbacks and played B much better than against Nebraska. However, they allowed two sacks.

defensive line: After the opening drive, the defensive line shut down the Spartan's running game. Duckett A- was limited to 71 yards and Weaver and Irons both recorded sacks.

linebackers: No complaints here - Boiman, Watson and Harrison had A- another solid game. Watson was again the leading tackler for the Irish.

By NOAH AMSTADTER Sports Editor

As the Irish fell to the Spartans for the fifth year in ·a row Saturday, the pain couldn't have been worse than what members of the Irish senior class felt. The seniors will graduate without ever posting a win against Michigan State. But some of the seniors did not go down quietly. Tailback Tony Fisher, receiver Javin Hunter and defensive end Anthony .• Weaver all provided sparks of hope during an otherwise lackluster Irish performance. Fisher entered the game late in the first quarter after an early fumble by junior Julius Jones. Fisher rushed for 54 yards on that first drive, including four first .. downs, leading to a Nick Setta field goal which tied the game at 3-3. Fisher then rotated in at running back with Jones for the .remainder of the game, finishing with 103 yards on 17 carries. "I thought I was in a pretty good groove ... " Fisher said. "I am just out there trying to play ball. This is my last year so I'm just trying to have a lot of fun and help the team win as many games as possible."
