3 quick takes from Michigan State football’s overtime win over Boston College

For the first time in what has felt like forever, Michigan State football pieced together an effective second half on the offensive side of the ball, leading to a 42-40 overtime win over Boston College.

Jonathan Smith's Spartans have been known for losing second-half battles, but this time, they found themselves down by a touchdown at halftime. They rallied, scored quickly to open the second half, and then battled back-and-forth with Boston College, ending up in an overtime showdown.

There, Aidan Chiles was able to stay calm, cool, and collected, throwing a touchdown pass in the first overtime and then running in another in the second before converting the game-winning 2-point conversion to Omari Kelly.
