Spartans Push Buckeyes to the Brink

WKAR
Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer joins his team in singing the fight song after beating Michigan State by one point on Saturday afternoon.

The Michigan State football team almost upset the No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes on Saturday afternoon at Spartan Stadium, 17-16 the final. The Spartans were down 17-10 when LJ Scott scored on a 1-yard run with 4:41 to play. Tyler O'Connor's pass was intercepted in the end zone on a 2pt conversion attempt that would've given MSU the lead. 

WKAR's Al Martin talks about whether or not MSU believes in moral victories.
