We'll be bringing you a second podcast each week throughout college football season where we break down what Michigan State and its future (and sometimes past) opponents are scheming on both sides of the ball. 

Lansing State Journal sports storyteller Nate Atkins and sports reporter Phil Friend will be your guides, and this week they take a look at:

• MSU offensive Jay Johnson's offense and what he ran at previous stops
• Rutgers' defense under new defensive coordinator Robb Smith (influenced by coach Greg Schiano
• MSU DC Scottie Hazelton's preferred defense
• What to expect from new Rutgers OC Sean Gleeson
• Big Ten game-by-game picks
