Michigan State struggled mightily against Washington in a 41-7 thrashing at home by the Huskies. But Sunday was much better for the green and white. <a href=\"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/kenneth-walker-iii-rated-the-11th-best-rb-in-madden-24-2\/\">Kenneth Walker III<\/a> and Jayden Reed had big days in the NFL.<\/p>\n<p>Walker III was playing the Detroit Lions and a lot of local fans were not happy with how well he played against their team. He didn&#8217;t have the most effective day on the ground, but he did cross the goal line a couple of times.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">we love a kenneth walker iii touchdown!!\ud83d\udc36 \ud83d\udc36 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/17hakHKxGf\">pic.twitter.com\/17hakHKxGf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NFL Fantasy Football (@NFLFantasy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFLFantasy\/status\/1703458329790660829?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 17, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Kenneth Walker III&#39;s second TD!<\/p>\n<p>Just like that, we&#39;re tied in Detroit.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcfa: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/SEAvsDET?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#SEAvsDET<\/a> on FOX<br \/>\ud83d\udcf1: Stream on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NFLPlus?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NFLPlus<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FhXtx7w3wW\">https:\/\/t.co\/FhXtx7w3wW<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TBNIJpV1Up\">pic.twitter.com\/TBNIJpV1Up<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NFL (@NFL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFL\/status\/1703478276440678909?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 17, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The first touchdown by Walker gave the Seahawks an early 7-0 lead and the second score tied the game up at 14-14 in the third quarter.
