Felton Davis, defense lead MSU to upset over Penn State

Plenty of ugliness, a little help and more guts than can be measured – that’s what it took for the Michigan State Spartans to pull the upset over Penn State in Happy Valley.

Fresh off of a home loss, the Spartans entered the game a double-digit underdog the the Nittany Lions. But the Spartans took their first lead of the game with less than 20 seconds left in the fourth quarter on the Brian Lewerke pass to Felton Davis III for a game-winning touchdown.

“When the ball’s up, it’s just who wants it more,” Davis said of the game winning play.
