Michigan State struggling to pick up offensive momentum
Connor Heyward has trouble fielding the kickoff and only gets back to the Michigan State 15.
La'Darius Jefferson runs for a gain of 2 on the last play of the first quarter.
7-3 Northwestern (End 1st)
Brian Lewerke fakes to Jefferson and fires a ball to Felton Davis that is deflected by multiple players and nearly picked off. Lewerke's third-down throw to Matt Sokol is a tad behind the tight end and dropped. Michigan State will punt.
Riley Lees returns the punt 6 yards to the Northwestern 49-yard-line.
