No. 7 Michigan State continued its surprising start to the season by knocking off No. 6 Michigan 37-33 with a furious rally in the second half on Saturday.
Kenneth Walker was the star for the Spartans, who improved to 8-0. The Wake Forest transfer ran for 195 yards and five touchdowns as Michigan State won for the 10th time in 14 meetings in the rivalry. The five touchdowns are the most by a Spartans player against Michigan in a single game.
Michigan seemed to have control in the third quarter. After Cade McNamara hit Andrel Anthony for two touchdowns in first half, he threw a 16-yard scoring strike to Mike Sainristil that put the Wolverines ahead 30-14 in the third quarter.
