461 yards of total net offense against Michigan's top ranked Defense. Who would have predicted that going into the game. Just to appreciate the context a little more, here is what other teams have done:
Northwestern - 168, was ranked at one time
BYU - 105, was ranked at one time
Oregon St. - 138
Maryland - 105
UNLV - 235
Utah - 337 - top 4 ranked at one time and first game of season
Mich. St. - 386, a top 8 ranked MSU squad with an NFL qb running the offense.
This would have been a much more enjoyable stat with the win, but give credit where credit is due. The offensive game plan was very good against a top 5 defense in the country.
