Since Michigan State<\/a> won 11 games and downed Pittsburgh<\/a> in the 2021 Peach Bowl, it\u2019s been tough sledding for the once college football juggernaut. Over the past three seasons, the Spartans boast a combined 14-22 record and have missed three consecutive bowl games for the first time since 2004-06 (the three seasons prior to Mark Dantonio<\/a>\u2018s arrival).<\/p>\n

The Spartans went just 5-7 last season, but could have squeaked into a bowl game with a win over Boston College<\/a> on Sept. 21. The Eagles however converted on a 42-yard passing touchdown with 1:28 remaining, sending State and quarterback Aidan Chiles<\/a> home with the loss.<\/p>\n

Chiles, who passed for just 241 yards and threw three interceptions in the loss, discussed how excited he is for the rematch<\/a> this season. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so excited man,\u201d Chiles said. \u201cYou know, last year we didn\u2019t get the result we wanted but at the end of the day we can\u2019t dwell on that too much. To get another opportunity to play the team that \u2014 you know, I don\u2019t think \u2014 I\u2019m gonna be quiet. But um, yeah. I love seeing them on the schedule and getting a chance to get back and stuff like that. It\u2019s a very competitive game and I\u2019m truly excited to play them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trailing by four, Chiles actually led the Spartans to the Boston College 20-yard line with 36 seconds remaining but threw a game-ending interception.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor sure,\u201d Chiles responded when asked if the loss still sticks with him. \u201cIt\u2019s for sure a chip on my shoulder. I feel like we could have won every game but we didn\u2019t do the things that we had to do. It\u2019s just the little things that count and I\u2019m just excited to play them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chiles transferred to Michigan State from Oregon State<\/a> along with new head coach Jonathan Smith<\/a> prior to the 2024 season. The Long Beach native passed for 2,415 yards, 13 touchdowns and 11 interceptions on 322 attempts last season.<\/p>\n

\u201cToo many,\u201d he continued when asked how many times he has replayed the loss to BC in his head. \u201cIt\u2019s been a lot of learning and digesting the film. I just keep diving into the film. It was a lot of fun but going back and seeing over and over and the mistakes and the fumbles, it was just like \u2018what could I do different?\u2019 So I\u2019ve been studying it and trying to see what we could do next year and come back stronger. Next year is here, so we\u2019re excited.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two programs will clash once again this season on Sept. 6 in East Lansing. Kick-off is scheduled for 7:30 PM on NBC\/Peacock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Since Michigan State won 11 games and downed Pittsburgh in the 2021 Peach Bowl, it\u2019s been tough sledding…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":249134,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[40196,7,49,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-249133","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ncaa-football","8":"tag-aidan-chiles-23-downey","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-ncaa","11":"tag-ncaa-football"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/114944638064359553","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/249133","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=249133"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/249133\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/249134"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=249133"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=249133"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=249133"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
