EAST LANSING, Mich. — It looked like it was over at halftime. That’s when No. 2 Michigan took a 27-10 lead with a field goal at halftime and the “Let’s Go Blue” chants infiltrated Spartan Stadium.
Remember, this is Michigan State-Michigan. This is a rivalry the Spartans took over the moment Mark Dantonio responded to a loss to Michigan in 2007 by dead-panning, “It’s not over. It'll never be over here. It's just starting.” This is a rivalry that isn’t over until it’s over, as proven by Jalen Watts-Jackson’s walk-off punt return at the Big House led to a 27-23 in 2015.
