Bell scores from 1 yard out to extend MSU's lead

Michigan State got another big turnover and made it count.

Darqueze Dennard intercepted a pass from Taylor Martinez and returned it to the Nebraska 38-yard line late in the third quarter.

The Spartans then took eight plays to extend its lead to 10 points on a 1-yard run by Le’Veon Bell less than a minute into the fourth quarter.

The 24 points scored by Michigan State are the most at home this season, surpassing the 23 it had against Eastern Michigan.
