Matt Trannon - Record Breaker


Michigan State senior wide receiver etched his name in the school record book on Saturday during the Spartans' 52-20 win over Eastern Michigan.

Trannon caught 14 passes in the game, surpassing former Spartan and current New York Giant Plaxico Burress who caught 13 passes in the 2000 Citrus Bowl win over Florida.

The names atop the school record book for receptions in a single game is impressive and now looks like this:

1 - Matt Trannon - 14 vs. Eastern Michigan (2006)
2 - Plaxico Burress - 13 vs. Florida (2000)
3 - Mitch Lyons - 12 vs. Michigan (1992)
4 - Josh Keur - 11 vs. Northwestern (1997)
Andre Rison - 11 vs. Indiana (1986)
6 - Charles Rogers - 10 vs. Fresno State (2001)
Plaxico Burress - 10 vs. Michigan (1999)
Plaxico Burress - 10 vs. Purdue (1998)
Derrick Mason - 10 vs. Michigan (1996)
Darrin McClelland - 10 vs. Michigan (1982)
Ted Jones - 10 vs. Illinois (1980)

Congratulations Matt Trannon!
