It was late December 2012, and Michigan State was stuck in a rut. The Spartans offense had picked up only 84 yards in two-plus quarters of work at the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl. They trailed TCU, 13-0, and looked to be headed toward their fifth loss in seven games. Head coach Mark Dantonio decided to turn to freshman quarterback Connor Cook in search of a spark.

Cook, playing the first meaningful minutes of his college career that day, came off the bench to lead a 90-yard scoring drive. He capped it with the first of his 47 (and counting) touchdown passes as a Spartan. Michigan State went on to beat the Horned Frogs and hasn’t lost in the postseason since. The team has won 24 of the 27 games that followed overall, and Cook started in all but one of them.

The winner: Connor Cook

ESPN's new website format is god-awful.

This. So terrible.

Combined with the fact that they think they're better off without Bill Simmons, and you have to wonder what the fuck the people in charge are thinking.
