Most people would have taken the game to overtime, but something tells me Hoke knew his defense was completely gassed and wouldn't be able to stop a middle school team at that point. A shootout would have still been preferable to throwing to three receivers covered by five DBs.

I am putting my money on the Spartans. Michigan State is built to beat Ohio State: strong rush defense and solid pass coverage. tOSU has stuggled against top 20 defenses (Wisconsin and Iowa) and will be facing the #4 scoring defense in the championship game .
