One for the History Books! Michigan State Wins 37- 31

Michigan State winning Hail Mary Pass


You cannot write this any better than how it played out.  This games was a once in a lifetime for these players.  31 to 31 with 46 seconds left and Cousins almost blows it by getting the ball stripped; thankfully France was able to jump on the ball for the recovery.  You could just feel your heart skip a beat.  Then you think, OK this game is going into overtime.  With 4 seconds left on the clock, Cousins just drops back and throws over 50 yards praying for a miracle.  The ball bounces off a Badger and lands in of all people, Nichol's hands. Wow, this is one for the Spartans history books.

Spartans are now 3 - 0 in the Big Ten and 6 - 1 overall.  Saturday they take on the Huskers, which is not going to be a walk in the park.  It will be another close game, but with Cousin's leadership and Bell & Caper on the ground, they should be able to keep the streak alive.
