Pass deflected by B.J. Cunningham catches it for a touchdown!!
Play will be reviewed but it's definitely a touchdown.

Nice catch by Sparty with 2 minutes to go.
Sparty ahead 28-27.
I can see a NW drive here to win.

Michigan State's drive was 11 plays, 88 yards, and took 5:18 off the clock.
Northwestern will have all three timeouts and need just a field goal.

NW turns it over on downs and it looks like Michigan State will survive.

Allowing the fake punt first down was the major mistake by NW! Defense just let up a little to allow it, when they were in a good spot - leading by 10 in the 4th and due to get the ball, they thought!

Damn. Thought the Cats would pull it off.
Hopefully, Iowa can beat Sparty next week.

Bad decision to score a TD, should have gone down after getting 1st down....now NW gets a minute to score TD with 2 pt conversion

wow, that let them score strategy is the difference between me being 30 dollars in the hole and 26 dollars richer after betting Sparty -5.5

I forgot to bet it. I thought all along how glad I was that I didn't. Then of course the Fightin Dantonios cover.
