Michigan State came into the game with interim coach Bobby Williams, who took over on December 5, five days after Nick Saban departed to take over the Louisiana State program.
Michigan State wide receiver Plaxico Burress caught a career-high 13 passes for 185 yards and three touchdowns and Paul Edinger kicked a 39-yard field goal as time expired to lead the ninth-ranked Spartans to a 37-34 victory over the No. 10 Gators. Williams was later hired as the head coach of the Spartans.
