I saw it coming but didn't really think it would happen. NW's drive was so quick and they still had timeouts.
3rd and 5, you KNOW they are running. Just tackle the guy.
Honestly, while I understand, its frustrating to watch. I highly doubt they LET him score. Yet once he got the first down, they should have. He should have gone down and not given NW the ball back.
So you get a runner that should go down for the team, a defense that should intentionally let the guy score (after they knew he already had the first down), and just horrid tackling....and yet we are the ones who lose.
Mich St is having one of those magical/lucky seasons. Still waiting for the delay of game called against Notre Dame
