EAST LANSING — Spartan Stadium had gone quiet, the energy in the Woodshed as distant a memory as the home team's three touchdowns scored in a seven-minute span.
Michigan Statefootball had given up 10 consecutive points, its lead slashed to one possession with Western Michigan on the drive again early in the fourth quarter. On second-and-4 as the Broncos approached midfield, Jacoby Windmon came off the edge, barreled through the Broncos offensive line and dropped quarterback Jack Salopek to force a third-and-long.
It was his third sack on the night, and wouldn't be his last.
