RECAP
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) _ Bill Burke passed for two touchdowns and Michigan State held Eastern Michigan to 130 yards in beating the Eagles 51-7 on Saturday. On the second possession of the game for Michigan State (2-0), Burke hit tight end Chris Baker for a 17-yard touchdown, then added a 25-yarder to flanker Gari Scott. Michigan State rolled to a 41-0 lead by halftime and was already making use of substitutes. Michigan State had 197 passing yards in the first half and forced Eastern Michigan (1-0) into 10 punts. The Eagles didn't cross midfield until the fourth quarter, when Walter Church's 30-yard pass to Jermaine Sheffield accounted for the only Eastern Michigan touchdown. Freshman tailback T.J. Duckett scored his first touchdown on a 4-yard run, fullback Dawan Moss scored on a 42-yard run and Lorenzo Guess returned an interception 39 yards for a Michigan State score. Paul Edinger kicked field goals of 32, 49 and 51 yards.
