The Paul Bunyan Trophy stays in East Lansing for another year after MSU's 27-23 win over Michigan in Ann Arbor.

The Michigan State football team pulled off one of the most improbable comebacks in Spartan/Wolverine rivalry history, topping Michigan 27-23 in the final seconds of action. 

Al Martin reports from the excitement at "The Big House" in Ann Arbor, Michigan and highlights how the MSU "Rope-A-Dope" worked to perfection.
