The reason why he did win it was because of what he did on his last two drives of the first half and the whole second half.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the majority of the first half, the offense did not click. There were players dropping balls, tough throws being made and the offensive line wasn\u2019t getting a push. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once Michigan State went up tempo, this started to change. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You could see the confidence grow as Kim kept making every throw even when he still had a few receivers dropping the ball. He didn\u2019t let that stop him and kept pushing forward, leading to 289 yards passing. He isn&#8217;t just a confident quarterback, he&#8217;s also a winner. That showed in high school when he only lost two games and won the DC Touchdown Club Virginia High School Player of the Year. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kim hasn\u2019t had the chance before now to show what he has at Michigan State but winning this award and a player of the year award for the state of Virginia, you can definitely see why he&#8217;s getting his opportunity to play.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A solid first start is earning some recognition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":6570,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[173],"tags":[191,189,248],"class_list":["post-6549","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-michigan-state-football","tag-michigan-state-spartans","tag-noah-kim"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6549","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/20"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6549"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6549\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6570"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6549"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6549"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6549"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
