This came down to which team could finally manage not to screw up a field goal. The first five attempts (two for MSU, three for Indiana) all failed, but Indiana got a second chance in OT thanks to a penalty and took advantage. (Somehow neither team managed to have the worst kicking game of the day; that dubious honor belongs to Texas, who managed an astounding -1 net point on four PAT kicks thanks to having three of them blocked, one run back for 2 and another coming close.) Realistically, MSU is nearly out of the division title hunt already; the most realistic scenario is for OSU to lose to Wisconsin but beat Michigan and MSU wins out (and even that requires a little more help from Indiana and Maryland falling off the pace, though those are both fairly likely).
