Ask Herb Haygood what he brings to the team and the first thing hell say is speed.
Even though the junior receiver was tied for second on the squad with seven receptions heading into the Notre Dame game Saturday, Haygood had not displayed his wheels in the first two games this year.
So if there were any doubts about his claims, Haygood erased them Saturday as he bolted 68 yards upfield en route to scoring the game-winning touchdown with 1:48 remaining in MSUs 27-21 win over Notre Dame.
Coach said big-time players make big-time plays in big-time games and I guess thats a big play, he said.
With MSU losing 21-20 with just under eight minutes left in the game, Haygood said Notre Dame wasnt heading home victorious.
I told someone earlier, Were not going to lose the game, he said.
