Northwestern wasted little time grabbing the lead back, going 73 yards in seven plays and going back in front on a 6-yard pass from Kain Colter to Tim Riley.
Michigan State appeared to force a punt when Colter’s pass was incomplete on third down, but Shilique Calhoun was called for a facemask.
Three plays later the Wildcats were in the end zone.
