Wiser Wolverines have moved on from heartbreak

Ann Arbor – While everyone else will rehash the end of last year’s Michigan-Michigan State game, the Wolverines players say they’ve moved on long ago.

In the final 10 seconds of that game, Michigan punter Blake O’Neill fumbled the snap, and MSU’s backup defensive back Jalen Watts-Jackson returned it for a touchdown and the 27-23 victory, giving the Spartans their seventh victory in the last eight UM-MSU games.

Michigan is ranked No. 2, boasts the nation’s top-ranked defense and is thinking about big-picture goals. Those goals include running the table this season, and that would mean beating Michigan State along the way.
