Sean Bunting defended Michigan State wide receiver Felton Davis III with outside leverage near the eight-yard line.
Davis was forced outside but eventually leaned back in, and Bunting allowed him to do so.
As quarterback Brian Lewerke released the football into the end zone, Bunting slipped inside Davis and secured the ball for his first interception of the 2018 season on Sept. 29 at Spartan Stadium.
From Nov. 1 to Nov. 24 last season, the 6-foot-1, 181-pound now-junior registered five interceptions over the course of four weeks – including at least one each game from Week 9 to Week 12.
