  Michigan State tight end Tyler Hunt delivered both times he touched the ball Saturday at Indiana. First, Hunt avoided taking a sack near midfield with a 15-yard heave to quarterback Payton Thorne. Three plays later, he caught the game-changing 12-yard touchdown pass from Thorne. And just that quickly, the 10th-ranked Spartans were back on track. Matt Coghlin opened the second half with the go-ahead 51-yard field goal, Hunt's big plays gave Michigan State the breathing room it needed and the defense held on for a 20-15 victory. "That was a heck of a play," coach Mel Tucker said of Hunt's throw and Thorne's tap-dance catch in traffic on the sideline. "Good play call, good execution, we were just trying to get a first down and keep the chains moving." No, it didn't follow Tucker's season-long script.

Kenneth Walker III, the nation's leading rusher, finished with 23 carries for 84 yards and the Spartans punted on all six first-half possessions. But with Coghlin, Hunt and Thorne providing the second-half scoring punch, the Spartans (7-0, 4-0 Big Ten) survived a scare, reclaimed the Old Brass Spittoon and remained atop the East Division. "Turnovers were huge for us, defense was playing hard and holding them to low numbers, the offense was really disciplined in the second half and that was why we were able to get it done," Tucker said. - Michigan State/AP College Football
