Cousins, Michigan State Rally Past Northwestern

Home or away, Michigan State keeps finding ways to win.

Kirk Cousins threw for a season-high 329 yards and three touchdowns, and the eighth-ranked Spartans rallied to beat Northwestern 35-27 and remain unbeaten on Saturday.

B.J. Cunningham made an acrobatic grab for the go-ahead touchdown with two minutes left. Edwin Baker added a 25-yard scoring run and Eric Gordon intercepted Dan Persa in the closing seconds to seal a wild win.

Playing out of state for the first time this season, the Spartans scored 28 points in another strong second half.
