Anyone who ever mentions the drive in college football is referring to this throwback. A brute strength against strength, smashmouth style of football that doesn't exist today. LJ Scott will always be a part of spartan lore...superman on this day. Go Green!
BTW, from a Spartan, we should acknowledge OSU this year. Had they NOT impressed last year, we would likely not have been in the position that we are. Their win proved that the Big Ten was as good as any conference, and winning it makes a team almost automatically deserving of a shot.
The Kirk Cousins - Connor Cook era was legendary... confident leader quarterbacks, impenetrable defense, lethal running backs, the receivers never dropped shit, and their lines were ruthless.
@@johnjames7254 not really. Lewerke had a better chance than Lombardi before he broke his leg. Of course, now I feel like Thorne has the best chance of any QB since Cook
Only way that era could have been better would be with Kenneth Walker lol. No disrespect to the the RBs back then, but Walker is just on another level and I can't imagine how good that team would have been
LJ Scott running right, NOOO HE DIDNT GET IN, OR DID HE, YYYYEEEESSSS TOUCHDOWN SPARTANS! ONE STRIKE FROM THE TRUE FRESHMEN! OH I love those words!!!!!!!
I'm a Spartan and I bleed green. I loved every minute of that great run. I know that this is a 5 year old comment but Joe R is pure class for this comment and a great example of why I've never met an Iowa fan I didn't like. Iowa is looking really good this year and I always root for Iowa unless they're playing State. Love to see both teams do well.
I remember when I was 8 staying up until about 11 or 12 watching this interesting game. I did not move for the 3 hours this game was on because as a diehard MSU fan I wanted it so bad
Iowa fan here. Lemme first say this game was really tough to watch. Watching my Hawkeyes battle and battle and battle and come up short in the final seconds was simply heartbreaking. But we all must give credit to MSU. They fought hard as well and deserved the win. BTW this is so heartbreaking for me that I could never watch this game EVER after it happened. But I am hoping to see a rematch this year. MSU is for real and so is Iowa. Let’s hope we have a 2021 Big ten Championship game Iowa vs. Michigan State but THIS time, it will go our way 😉
Neither of those guarantees that Iowa scores that touchdown, or that MSU doesn't, respectively. Maybe next time don't let your opponent drive across the field for nine minutes, and you'll win a B1G championship game.
Dunno what to tell ya. It was an old-school, B1G style, punch you in the face kind of championship game. Shit happens. Was a good freaking game. If nothing else, it saved you from being completely dismantled by Alabama lol
Yes Ik that MSU won congrats but playing calling for OSU sucked on offense. If OSU played MSU the same way they played against Michigan and Notre Dame let's admit OSU would have won. And Iowa was overrated
See bud, the problem is that you're trying to argue that the team that lost was better than the team that won, so already you're at a massive handicap.
22 plays 9 mins.
Can't even replicate that on a video game.
I can have 10 minute drive in NCAA. You just need to run the ball and then snap with a second left on the play clock
16:17. I keep getting goosebumps when I hear that Fight Song hit

Alex Aguilar The Lombardi era could be the same just watch

it what "What strength" not "one strike" haha
Gus Johnson is easily one of my favorite announcers
@@willblake6526 wait are you serious?
If only he was that good in 2016 😢
I'm an Iowa fan, but I'm very proud of Michigan State I'll be cheering them on. Awesome game. Go Green and Go Hawks.

He is all time great. I loved how much he actually loved MSU. closed out every interview with #GoGreen. He bled it.
Always...GO GREEN!
This is by far my favorite channel on CZcams, I was waiting since Sunday for this video to come out. Even though I watched the game myself.
Heartbreaking for this Hawkeye fan but the game was a classic. Had a great time in Indy. Michigan State fans were very gracious and classy.
I’m a Michigan State fan but I live in Iowa so this has to be my favorite game of all time

Heartbreaking loss guss voice is stock in my head ringing from when Michigan scored that late to were coming this year tho I’m hyped 🔥🔥🤝
By the way, thanks for editing and uploading this video. Go State!
6 years later and 16:30 is still the sickest 1 yard run ever
One of if not the greatest drive in football history
This game gives me chills every time I watch it!
Was there. Great game! So hard fought by both teams. A classic Big Ten fight!
Unreal effort by both teams! I'll be watching your bowl games! (after my huskers finish their's)
Seeing the players slowly walk out of the fog like that at the beginning, gives me chills every time omg
What a physical game, both sides hitting hard
Wow throwback I miss these days! Gus Johnson doing amazing like usual
That ladt drive was basically straight out of a movie
I didn't understand it then and I don't understand it now: How did L. J. Scott NOT get the MVP for the game? WAY more deserving than the QB.
Love this hard nose defense, I miss it
I always liked that what outer jacket worn by Dantonio that year. The zip pocket on the sleeve always seemed like a good place to keep your Marlboros.
16:21 My heart was pounding
thank you!!
The pass from CJ to smith on the 1st play of the 4th quarter was the loudest the stadium got all night!
GO GREEEEEEN
Go green! But you didn't even show the IOWA TD?.... What a weird thing
Can you please upload either full season highlights or all touchdowns?
My god oh Scott showed that POWER
Sad thing is that Alabama kicked our ass haha. This game had me biting my cheeks, it was so hard to watch, but we pulled it off
Had some great backs . Lots of Ohio boys on the team.
That last position by MSU was a Classic!
Simply Spartan....
Go Green!
GO GREEN GO WHITE GO STATE!
Lj scott literally beat like 5 hawkeyes by himself that man refused to go down
Are you going to, or did you already, do the Oregon game?
czcams.com/video/JFKp5EtHTso/video.html
Best game ever 💪 Go GREEN
13:09
I love Gus Johnson lmao
championship drive
Spartans yahhhhh
That’s when MSU had a great D!
B1G champs again! now its time to make a statement against Alabama and our ol' buddy Nick Saban
jlsmsu12 sike!
Paying harbaugh 9 million a year to finish 3rd in the division. Thats hillarious
state will never beat Bama ever
That's my boys
Oh. Sorry. Didn't watch the vid 1st. Its MS bias did show any iowa play. It was a great game by both teams. Grats MS!!
The Iowa quarterback is going to need a ice bath after that game cuz he took a beating
Proof MSU has not had a good offense in years
HEEEES BAAAAAACKK
iowa player hit the guy out of tackling lj scott, his fault
6:46 look at that targeting call
16:18 look at #75 tackle Josey Jewell who could've had the game winning tackle.
Refs won this game for sparty.
Neither of those guarantees that Iowa scores that touchdown, or that MSU doesn't, respectively.
Maybe next time don't let your opponent drive across the field for nine minutes, and you'll win a B1G championship game.
True, but those were the 2 plays that haunted us the most that game
Dunno what to tell ya. It was an old-school, B1G style, punch you in the face kind of championship game. Shit happens. Was a good freaking game.
If nothing else, it saved you from being completely dismantled by Alabama lol
Good point lol
Raptormann0205 msu vs Penn State coming up this Saturday only 7.5 point spread and Lewerke is coming off his best game ever what are your thoughts
how you cut out iowa st td smh
Not sure why they'd add an Iowa St TD highlight into a game between MSU and Iowa.
Heh then they had to play Alabama 😂
The solid sardine apically joke because spain unsurprisingly spark versus a mighty utensil. good, dear relative
Ohio State was better than these 2 teams
Ohio State couldn't even beat MSU at home with MSU's starting QB out hurt.
MSU handled osu without cook
Yes Ik that MSU won congrats but playing calling for OSU sucked on offense. If OSU played MSU the same way they played against Michigan and Notre Dame let's admit OSU would have won. And Iowa was overrated
the play calling wasnt bad the msu defense was just amazing that year and msu was playing with our backup QB
See bud, the problem is that you're trying to argue that the team that lost was better than the team that won, so already you're at a massive handicap.
Final score: Refs 16, Iowa 13
Yep. Because it was the refs who gave up a 20+ play drive in the 4th
Salty
jazzalex22
what game we're u watching . Msu won that fair and square
the Spartans Did not get that tochdown!!!!!! LOOK AT IT IOWA WON😤
What r u talking about that was easily a touchdown
Knees weren't down, ball was over the goal line, that my friend, is a touchdown.
exactly
