The Wolverines couldn't convert inside the Spartan 10 and were forced to settle for a 23-yard Kenny Allen field goal that gives Michigan a 17-10 advantage with 6:41 to play in the first half.
To start the drive, Speight stood in the pocket and delivered a first down pass to Amara Darboh while taking a big hit. On the next play, Chris Evans took a handoff for a 10-yard run and Speight followed that up by eluding the rush and finding Darboh 43 yards downfield to the MSU 7.
