for spartans, comeback win leads to roses

By Stephen Brooks sbrooks@statenews.com THE STATE NEWS nn

INDIANAPOLIS — Mark Dantonio told his team they would be “the ones” at his team banquet last offseason, where the book officially closed on a frustrating 7-6 season.

What MSU’s seventh-year head coach implied was that the 2013 Spartans would be the ones to bring MSU’s first Rose Bowl bid since 1988.

At Lucas Oil Stadium Saturday night, Dantonio’s 10th-ranked Spartans were the ones – the ones with roses clenched between their teeth.

They were the ones, spattered in confetti, hoisting the trophy and breaking in their brand new championship hats.

They were the ones that validated Dantonio’s prophecy with a 34-24 upset of No. 2 Ohio State, earning the program’s first Big Ten title since 2010, and first outright crown since 1987.

“I live for my players,” Dantonio

said. “Our players, I’m so happy for them. They made a lifetime moment tonight for all of us.”

The Spartans (12-1 overall) handed Urban Meyer his first loss since taking over as head coach of the Buckeyes (12-1). They also completed their revenge checklist by downing the five Big Ten teams they lost to by 13 total points in 2012 – winning each time by double digits this season.

MSU’s longstanding goal of returning to Pasadena, Calif., has been realized. In the fifth Rose Bowl appearance in school history, the Spartans will take on Pac-12 champion Stanford on Jan. 1.

Dantonio notched the biggest win of his career, MSU achieved its first-ever 12-win season and sophomore quarterback Connor Cook set a career-high with 304 passing yards and three touchdowns en route to MVP honors.

“Emotionally, it’s surreal,” Cook said. “It’s things you dream about as a kid.”

Freshman kicker Michael Geiger

got the Spartans on the board first with a 40-yard field goal on the first possession of the game. In the second quarter, Cook put a pair of throws on the money for touchdowns, to build a 17-0 lead. The first was a 72-yard catch-and-run to junior receiver Keith Mumphery, while the second was from 33 yards out to junior wideout Tony Lippett.

Ohio State’s dynamic quarterback, Braxton Miller, found his footing in the second and third quarters, and to no surprise, the Buckeyes made it a game once Miller got comfortable by ripping off 24 unanswered points to take the lead. The Miller-led resurgence also revitalized the Indianapolis crowd, the majority of which were sporting Ohio State colors.

Geiger’s 44-yard field goal barely got past the crossbar, but it dropped in for three points to make it 27-24. On the following kickoff, Dantonio turned to senior kicker Kevin Muma to attempt a surprise onside kick. It nearly was recovered by senior cornerback Darquze

Dennard, but instead Ohio State took over with a short field on its own 41.

Two of the Spartans’ most reliable young players the past few weeks, junior running back Jeremy Langford and redshirt freshman tight end Josiah Price, added the final points for MSU with fourth-quarter touchdowns.

Price snagged a 9-yard touchdown run on a well-designed throwback play, while Langford – who took a beating against the Buckeyes – provided another late-game dagger of a run, this time from 26 yards out. Langford recorded his eighth consecutive 100-yard rushing game, notching 128 yards against the Buckeyes.

The play of the game came when Ohio State, trailing by three with about five minutes left in the fourth quarter, was stuffed on fourthand-2 by senior linebacker Denicos Allen. Miller took the defining snap and rolled to his right, something MSU players and coaches expected, and Allen was the first to meet him

on the ground on MSU’s 39. Miller gained one, but MSU took over from there.

The Buckeyes did manage to gain 374 yards against MSU’s vaunted defense, but key plays helped propel the victory.

“That’s something we focus on,” senior linebacker Max Bullough said. “We’ve done it all year.”

MSU once again used a late breakaway run from Langford to seal the win with a double-digit margin.

By the time Miller and Co. returned to the field, the Buckeyes were down 10 points and had just two minutes left on the clock.

“It’s just nice to make people happy I guess, simply put as that,” Dantonio said. “I’m excited for our players because they put in so much work. I’m excited for Mark Hollis. When he became the athletic director, he said he would not stop until we put our feet in the middle of those roses at the Rose Bowl. Now, we’ve accomplished that. We’ll be there.”

spartan football

DILLON DAVIS ddavis@statenews.com

Team makes history in Indy INDIANAPOLIS — Several weeks into fall camp, head coach Mark Dantonio had a question for his team.

“How many of you were alive in 1988?”

To little surprise, not a single hand was raised. Of course, 1988 was the last time MSU went to a Rose Bowl with names like White and Snow and Shurmur and Enos and Ezor and Bullough – Chuck Bullough, that is. These men carried the torch of a tremendous program looking to carve

an identity in a state rich with one previously painted maize and blue.

But most members of the MSU football team were born during or after 1990, a year marked by the United States’ newfound involvement in the Gulf War, the curiosity of the Hubble Space Telescope and a World Series won by the Cincinnati Reds – still two years removed from the trip to Pasadena, though.

Twenty-five years later, Dantonio scanned the room of young faces, seeing the opportunity to drive home a point – one that he’d like to believe each member of the team will recall from the first day the MSU head coach pitched them the program.

It was a point the Spartans kept in mind when the team jumped out to a 17-0 lead on the Buckeyes Saturday night. It was the one that kept the fire lit after the Buckeyes went on a 24-0 run to take the lead in the third quarter, causing clouds of doubt to creep into the minds of anyone on MSU’s side. His point was a

simple one – it always has been.

Just think: you can make history.

It was what propelled junior running back Jeremy Langford to drive yet another late game dagger into the heart of the defense, setting his team up for the win in the fourth quarter.

From the start, the Spartans were intent on making history, which is what they did in a 34-24 victory against the Buckeyes on the field of Indianapolis’ Lucas Oil Stadium.

Now, the Spartans are headed to the program’s first Rose Bowl in more than two decades, capped by a career-best passing effort by sophomore quarterback Connor Cook, who was named the Big Ten Championship Game MVP. “My dad used to always say, ‘Complete your circles.’ I thought we did that,” Dantonio told the media after the game. “I thought that’s what we did. I never get too excited. I don’t ever get too down.

I live for my players. Our players, I’m so happy for them. They made a lifetime moment tonight

for all of us – all of us had that moment, our fans, our players.

“It will be a moment that we’ll never forget.”

After navigating the perils of a four-headed quarterback battle, heavy offensive criticism from fans and media as well as constant skepticism if he was the guy for the job, it was Cook who had the last laugh during a frigid night in Indianapolis.

During the trophy presentation near midfield, Cook held a single rose in his grasp – even gripping it between his teeth, at times — before emphatically telling the crowd, “We’re the ones, baby.

We’re the ones! We’re going to the Rose Bowl!”

The Spartans are the ones – and they’re not going anywhere anytime soon.

By snapping a previous 24-game winning streak by head coach Urban Meyer and the Buckeyes, it’s the Spartans who will book a flight to Pasadena for a showdown with Pac-12 Conference champion Stanford.

But that’s likely a discussion for

3

another day – in fact, probably for the next 24 days leading up to the Rose Bowl.

However, Saturday night was about a dream realized; one that now is etched into the basic fibers of every single member of MSU’s football team; one to be proud of and thankful for among a fan base starved for some BCS affection to validate the success of a football program.

And as Dantonio closes the book on a stellar win in the Big Ten Championship Game, he no longer has the need to remind his team they’re on the cusp of history.

They unquestionably made history Saturday, tearing down a wall older than any player on either team playing for the Big Ten’s top prize and opening the door for the program.

But before chasing down the next dream, take a moment to stop and smell the roses.

It’s long overdue.
