How's Michigan State football's Antjuan Simmons' finger made the difference vs. Michigan

Antjuan Simmons kept his eyes on Hassan Haskins the entire time.

The Michigan running back lined up at quarterback in the wildcat for a second straight time. A play earlier, he had taken the direct snap, shuffled into the middle of the line and quickly gotten swallowed up by Michigan State’s Dashaun Mallory.

On third-and-4 with about 3 minutes left before halftime Saturday, Haskins caught the ball again, shuffled to his right, then cocked the ball in his right arm. With defensive tackle Jalen Hunt in his face, the Wolverine lofted a looping toss toward Carter Selzer, free behind the Spartans’ defense.
