  Michigan State coach Mel Tucker said he showed his players video highlights of special teams units around the country making game-changing plays. His 20th-ranked Spartans delivered a local adaptation on Saturday night. With the offense sputtering, Jayden Reed returned a punt 62 yards for a tying touchdown with 3:47 left in regulation, and Chester Kimbrough's huge defensive play in overtime helped send the Spartans to a 23-20 win over Nebraska. Matt Coghlin's 21-yard field goal on MSU's overtime possession kept his team unbeaten and set off a celebration at Spartan Stadium. MSU has won nine of its last 11 night games and is out to its best start since the 2015 team opened 8-0.

Kimbrough's interception came when he stepped in front of Samori Toure just as the ball was arriving on third down. Kimbrough's ran it back deep into Nebraska territory but he couldn't make it to the end zone. "I was just playing my coverage, trusting my coverage and trusting my technique," Kimbrough said. "We excelled it, man. I'm proud of my team." On Reed's game-turning play, Nebraska wanted a directional punt to the right, but Daniel Cerni sent it left. Jalen Nailor, also back as a return man, acted as if he would field the punt as coverage closed in on him, but it was Reed who caught the ball. With most of the coverage on the other side of the field, Reed was able to find plenty of running room. "That's something that we've been working on," Reed said. "We had a little decoy." - Michigan State/AP College Football
