A Decade Since "Spartan Bob" Clock Game Between UM - MSU

DETROIT (WWJ) - With the incredible run the Tigers, Lions and Red Wings are on the past few weeks ... rivalry week has almost been overlooked!

Saturday, Michigan and Michigan State meet again on the gridiron ... in East Lansing.

This year's game comes on the 10th anniversary of the infamous "Spartan Bob" clock game, when MSU score a controversial last second touchdown to win the game.

Matt April of Northville remembers that moment well.

"I was dating a girl from MSU at the time ...and I got a Christmas card that year that said, "Just taking a second to wish you a Merry Christmas," said April.

Kickoff Saturday afternoon is noon ... the pre-game show starts at 10 a.m. right here on WWJ.
