EAST LANSING, Mich. - Michigan State tackle Skyler Burkland
is expected to miss the rest of the season after dislocating his
left ankle Saturday against Notre Dame.
The school says Burkland had successful surgery Sunday and will
miss approximately three months. He's expected back in time for the
winter conditioning program.
Burkland, a redshirt freshman, started the first three games of
the season at right tackle. He was hurt in the second quarter of
Michigan State's 31-13 loss over the weekend.
