Brian Lewerke goes out a winner, powering Michigan State past Wake Forest

New York – For one afternoon, the frustration of a long season disappeared.

Overcoming a pair of red-zone turnovers in the second half, Michigan State closed its season with a win over Wake Forest, 27-21, in the 10th playing of the Pinstripe Bowl Friday at Yankee Stadium.

It was the sixth bowl victory for coach Mark Dantonio as Michigan State (7-6) avoided a sub-.500 record and provided a bit of momentum heading into next season.
