The Michigan Wolverines dominated the first half of their game against the Penn State Nittany Lions, but you wouldn’t know it based on the score.

Michigan led 16-14 at halftime, indicating the game was close. Wild plays, such as the Nittany Lions’ pick-six in the second quarter, helped Penn State keep it close.

Right after Penn State scored its first touchdown of the game to make it 13-7, the Nittany Lions got a pick-six.

It’s hard to tell what happened, but it looks like the pass got batted by Chop Robinson, bounced off a teammate’s helmet and went into the hands of Curtis Jacobs for a 47-yard touchdown.

The score plus the kick gave Penn State its first lead of the game at 14-13.

After being quiet nearly the entire first half, the Nittany Lions made it a game thanks to touchdowns on consecutive possessions.
