11:00 pm
devin bush, 10 -- >> referee: offsides, defense, number 3. five-yard penalty. still second down. >> kirk: bush and gary, 3, they end up getting, but how explosive. hurst has a chance to make a play in the backfield there. costly mistake for the wolverines. >> chris: exactly. five-yard penalty that feels enormous with the yards coming hard. >> kirk: look at maurice hurst, with that quickness. that's a two-yard loss, instead, now it's second and one. >> chris: freshman guard jarvis trying to work against the big man. and lewerke keeps it. they move the sticks. >> kirk: they pick up their first first town, but now -- now it really become as challenge for harbaugh and how he works his time-outs. he's going to have to start using them here in these next three plays. michigan state, you would have to think, run the football and force harbaugh into using those
11:01 pm
three time-outs. not in any hurry at all. should work that all the way down to two seconds, one second if you're lewerke. >> chris: snaps it at three. and that's holmes -- that's a terrific first down gain. that becomes a crucial play. second and short now. >> kirk: michigan has to use their time-out. at this point, it just becomes, if michigan state get as first down, the game is over. that's where we are at this point. michigan's going to have to use their time-outs and if they pick up a first down, they just won't have any way to stop the clock. >> chris: another one of those games, 110th meeting, battle for the paul bunyan trophy, it's been a funky game. the weather playing a part. but the spartans throwing hay makers and landing early. aggressive start. and then despite five takeaways, they really can't cash in. it's the
11:02 pm
trying to squeeze out the upset. >> kirk: they really are. any time you go into a game and you're up, you get to the second half, you pick up one first down, with three minutes to go in the game, tells you how your approach has been. i've never seen five turnovers in a game and still, 14-10. >> chris: if you go back ten years, teams in the power five that are plus-five in turnovers, as the spartans are, haven't lost. 59-0. most of those games were not four-point games in the final minutes. >> kirk: securing the football. another big thing for michigan state here late in the game. >> chris: they don't have a turnover tonight. holmes. not much. so, after a nice first down gain, hurst got in there. another time-out spent. it will be third and four. >> kirk: they use that -- gives them one time-out. like i said, if you pick up a first down, the game is over.
11:03 pm
the wall. they have to make a stop here on this third down. >> chris: cassidy hubbarth standing by. the ford wrapup show after the game. you see don brown circling his defense. wondering what dave warner might call. do you try lewerke to throw? he's a terrific runner. get him on the edge if you can? >> kirk: don brown is saying right now, we're shooting gaps. this is our calling card. this is who we are. maurice hurst, you're going to shoot a gap. you're going to make a play here. we're going to get them in the backfield. we're going to use our last time-out. we're going to get the ball back to o'korn and we're going to win the game. that's what you have to be selling right mow. the big thing is, michigan state -- you have to run the ball here, even if you don't pick up the first down, make michigan use that last time-out. quarterback run here? >> chris: lewerke fumbles the snap. chased and
11:04 pm
they're going to spot it first down! after a disastrous beginning of the play. >> kirk: chris, he landed on top of his own player, the center, brian allen, and that's why you see that spot. he was short by about a yard but he lands on allen. watch 65 get out in front of him. great job of improvising instead of giving up on the play. allen, lands on him, he's not down, and now he's down. >> chris: that's a great spot, kirk. but look at -- here's another look at the spot. they'll review, th this, of cou. not hitting the ground. no -- >> kirk: still not down. still not down. >> chris: you tell me that another quarterback keeper involving michigan is going to come into play here just like the ohio state game? >> kirk: furbush there chasing him. he actually ends up going from allen to furbush, then he comes down. furbush hit him from behind, almost jars that ball
11:05 pm
look at that effort, the strength in his hands to hold onto that football. >> chris: how about the beginning of the play? lewerke in the shotgun fumbles the snap. and it bounced right up to him. watch this bounce. right there. >> kirk: that's a shortstop. pretty good play there. i'm thinking he's just going take a knee, he doesn't want to turn the ball over. he goes from allen to furbush to the turf. great effort. >> chris: if the call stands -- >> kirk: great effort by allen, getting down field to try to make a croblock. >> chris: that's the kind of an assist you don't expect to make as a center. if it stands, just their second third down conversion of the game. >> kirk: 3-9 last year, michigan state. >> chris: and a very embarrassing offseason for the program, with three players dismissed. >> kirk: it's been a tough year fo
11:06 pm
>> referee: the ruling on the field stands as called. first down. >> chris: without the assist from big mr. allen, lewerke doesn't get it. but now, just 1:58, michigan with one time-out. >> kirk: that's a tough way for michigan's defense. >> they had him stopped by about a yard. >> chris: well, undoubtedly spend their final time-out after this first down play. they get a stop on the run. and it is holmes slammed down for a two-yard loss. final time-out, 1:33. after the cal/washington state game on espn, stay
11:07 pm
sp "sportscenter" at night. major league baseball playoffs, of course. "sportscenter" at night, also streaming on the espn app. so, after this next play, michigan cannot stop the clock. and might have a role reversal, where it's michigan state that has to wind it down and perhaps just get a punt off to secure the win. >> kirk: i don't think they're going to need to do that. michigan just used their last time-out. it's only second down. they'll be able to work this clock down. without having to punt the football. >> chris: saw brown say, got to rip the ball out. >> kirk: only chance they have. to be honest, if michigan state hands the ball off, i'd be shocked. and with the way maurice hurst is getting through and shooting gaps, why take the risk? if you're lewerke, you just take a knee. start that clock. >> chris: you think abo
11:08 pm
clean snap. because he just dropped that one. >> chris: now michigan state is going to call a time-out. rivalry game. you throw out the records and the rankings and all that stuchlt and so many times, it's been michigan state as the underdog team. dan toe owe, trying to move to 8-3, head to head against michigan. trying to win for a fourth time in five visits to the big house. and yet another upset of a top ten michigan team. >> kirk: can't say enough about this effort tonight, if michigan state is able to win this game. they really have become the forgotten team in the big ten east, with jim harbaugh coming in to michigan, penn state and james franklin, urban meyer and ohio state. last year, the off the field issues. they're 3-9.
11:09 pm
after that 3-9 year. what a way to remind america that michigan state still plays football in the big ten east. >> chris: you have to climb back up the letter. dantonio challenged his team. this is a very, very young football team. a lot of fresh faces. and they have battled very, very hard. just final pieces of business. handle the snap. lewerke just rolls out. and will be snoked down. a flag comes in. that will stop the clock. wow. >> kirk: why take a hit? i know he's -- mark dantonio is not happy about that. >> referee: holding. offense, number 94. ten yards from the spot of the foul. repeat second down. >> chris: you can't run out the clock with a play like that. >> kirk: you don't need to overthink it. if you are going to roll him out, just slide.
11:10 pm
harbaugh wanted to decline the penalty. he's saying decline it. doesn't care about the yardage. he just wants the down. >> referee: correction. the penalty will be declined. third down. the clock will start on the snap. >> chris: that's why it's important, because it is like giving michigan a time-out, that penalty. decline it, but, i mean, it's still 1:26 to go now, and third and eight. you don't get it, you're going have to deal with a punt. >> kirk: that penalty really hurt them. >> chris: huge. and that is the only thing that you didn't want to have happen. >> kirk: yeah. now they are going to have to punt the ball. >> chris: lewerke rolls again. takes another hit and is knocked down. fourth down. clock will run. and they'll have to snap it at
11:11 pm
>> kirk: oh, my gosh. it's identical. it's just -- we're going the other way. instead of going left to right, we're going right to to left. >> kir >> chris: it was harbaugh calling a time-out to set it up. michigan state's got a couple, if they want to take one and talk about it. >> kirk: just crazy. >> chris: michigan blocked four punts last year. most in the fbs. they came close to hartbarger earlier tonight. thankfully for the punter, the rain has let up quite a bit. the wind is not nearly howling the same way it was before. so, there it is. 41 seconds. they do spend a time-out. they've just got one left. the 11th punt of the night for hartbarger. >> kirk: that penalty, even though it didn't effect them with yards, it effects them with the clock. >> chris: absolutely. that's the one thing you couldn't do there, was stop the clock with the penalty. >> kirk: yeah, yeah.
11:12 pm
do we even mention the fact that you have to catch the snap and get the punt away? that's the essential part. >> kirk: should we play one more time the sean mcdonough call? >> chris: michigan fans saying please don't. o'korn huddling with harbaugh. caflisch, the snapper, has the important job now. hartbarger to punt it away. peoples-jones standing at the 11. the snap is handled. punt is away. and he just booms it. so it will bounce out of the end zone. 34 seconds to play. and michigan will take over. 75 yards from the end zone. >> kirk: at least they get a chance. get an opportunity for john o'korn. anything can happen. 34 seconds, no time-outs. thinking about first downs to stop tha
11:13 pm
out of bounds to stop the clock. o'korn, who has not had a great night, 14 of 30 for 165 yards, the three interceptions. but he has a chance here. it's a rivalry game. you just never know what could happen. >> chris: he's got guys with deep speed, like peoples-jones, eddie mcdoom. perry can run. crawford, decent speed. >> kirk: michigan state's defensive backs, the secondary, especially the safeties, keeping everything in front of them. >> chris: spartans rush three. o'kor o'korn. delivers underneath. this is higdon. he's got to get out of bounds. and he is knocked out across the 35. 27 seconds to play. >> kirk: late hit. 15 more yards added on top of that. that's a great call. the one earlier, we were kind of talking about that. >> referee: after the play was
11:14 pm
roughness, defense, number 23. 15 yards. >> kirk: what is chris frey thinking? right here, just throws him to the ground. he's ten yards out of bounds. >> chris: if he lets him go, it's no flag. >> kirk: yeah. let him go. there's not a penalty. right there, he pulls him down. he throws him to the ground. >> chris: the ball is at midfield. 27 seconds to go. spartans showing some pressure and they bring it. o'korn. flings it down field. got a man -- dropped it! oh, my goodness. eddie mcdoom was inside the 30. 19 seconds left. >> kirk: john o'korn gave everything he had here. buys enough time, keeps his eyes down field and it just looked like eddie mcdoom started to look where the defense was instead of just making the
11:15 pm
his eyes started to creep to his left to see where dowell was coming in to hit him. probably thinking about trying to make a play or get out of bounds. instead of just making that catch. >> chris: michigan state back to rushing three. o'korn over the middle, low ball. caught. first down -- now late signal incomplete. the official came in from a long way away and said that peoples-jones did not make the catch. 13 seconds left. >> kirk: the ball was bouncing around. looked like at the beginning when he first tried to get his hands underneath it, rolooked le he may have had a chance. ball started to bounce around afterwards, you'll see it just bounce out of there and towards the end -- watch it come loose. in fact, michigan state players trying to grab it. incomplete. wave that off. bachie trying to get in
11:16 pm
and knock that ball out. >> chris: time for just a couple plays. play clock is winding down. didn't get it off. they'll back it up five more. >> kirk: this is where that lack of experience with o'korn. play got in there a little bit late. he's got to get the ball snapped. >> referee: delay of game, offense. this is not a ten-second runoff, because the clock was dead at the time. >> chris: this just has to come down to the final play. the two mayor penalties by michigan state put them in this predictable. mcdoom has a chance to set them up in the red zone. drops the ball. >> kirk: michigan state blitzed two plays ago. now they rushing just three and dropping eight and mark dantonio wants to talk it over. >> chris: so, harlon
11:17 pm
mike tressel, co-defensive coordinators. o'korn backed up after that delay of game, not going to be able to heave the ball to the end zone. i don't think into this kind of wind this direction. >> kirk: no. and i think jim harbaugh, what he would like to see probably is some kind of crossing route. you get a first down, maybe pick up 15, 20 yards, fire it into the ground, stop the clock and then take a shot. you're not going to yourself any good with where the ball is to try to throw one, you know, remember, kordell stewart, this is about where he was when he threw it 75 yards, but i don't think john o'korn has that arm, to be able to make that throw. >> chris: unpleasant memory you brought up for me. >> kirk: little further back, actually. >> chris: after the time-out, spartans dropping a whole bunch of defenders off the line of scrimmage. just a three-man rush look. >> kirk: crossing route.
11:18 pm
short. higdon. just got to get out of bounds, does get a first down. five seconds. now they just have to take a shot at the end zone. >> kirk: that's what you wanted. in this case, out of the backfield. it's the same principle. you needed about 15, maybe 20 yards. now you've got a legitimate shot. this isn't a heave-ho from midfield. you're at the 37 yard line. you've got a shot here. oh, my gosh. two years ago and now this. >> chris: can michigan turn the tables with a miraculous finish of their own? will the spartans earn another upset in this great history of this rivalry? >> kirk: peoples-jones has height at the top. >> chris: o'korn rolling. launching for the end zone. in traffic -- incomplete. game over. michigan state wins it in the big house.
11:19 pm
some of the spartans sprinting around hugging, others demanding the paul bunyan trophy be produced on the michigan sidelines. >> kirk: chris, guess who got up there and made a play on the ball? joe bachie. >> chris: linebacker dropping way back in coverage. >> kirk: that is an enormous win for michigan state. >> chris: maria taylor will get the reaction from mark dantonio, as the spartans await that four-foot tall paul bunyan trophy. headed back to east lansing. maria? >> maria: well, chris, coach just looked at me and said, wow, that was pretty awesome. how would you describe the way your team was able to walk out of here -- >> we played hard, came to play. you know, michigan's got a great defense. five turnovers tough to overcome.
11:20 pm
we can't say enough about our defense and we did it the hard way. right down to the last second. >> maria: you said that your team was going to have to be road warriors and you were going to see how you handled adversary. what did you learn tonight? >> we're a happy group. let me tell you something about the ride home. you will never have a bus ride like this one home. never ever. told me that a long time ago, 2008. >> maria: what is different about this bus ride home? >> hey, i'm just thrilled for our football team and thrilled for our fans. this is a great environment. it's a great football game and i'm just excited. >> maria: all right, coach, you get to take home the paul bunyan trophy. >> go green. >> chris: turned this rivalry around after the little brother comments in 2008. talked about the bus ride home after that victory. and dantonio improved to 8-3 against michigan. >> kirk: from that night, the comments from mike hart, 8-2. incredible to think how this rivalry has flipped. and after a 3-9 year to have
