Michigan was searching for its first win against Michigan State since 2007. Michigan State won the previous meeting 34–17.<a href="#cite_note-103">[103]</a> The Wolverines wore legacy road uniforms for the game with Michigan State, which were the road version of the uniform worn against Notre Dame. It was the first time that Michigan wore all white road uniforms since the <a href="/wiki/1976_Orange_Bowl" title="1976 Orange Bowl">1976 Orange Bowl</a> against Oklahoma. Michigan State also wore special alternate uniforms colored dark green, bronze and black.<a href="#cite_note-MSUNotes-104">[104]</a> Michigan State continued its recent dominance over Michigan, winning 28–14.<a href="#cite_note-MSU-48">[48]</a> The first half was relatively quiet, with each team only scoring one touchdown in the first quarter. Michigan's Denard Robinson ran in one from 15 yards out, with Michigan State responding with a one-yard touchdown run by <a href="/wiki/Edwin_Baker_(American_football)" title="Edwin Baker (American football)">Edwin Baker</a>. After halftime, State's <a href="/wiki/Kirk_Cousins" title="Kirk Cousins">Kirk Cousins</a> threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to <a href="/wiki/Keshawn_Martin" title="Keshawn Martin">Keshawn Martin</a> to take the lead. The Spartans added more points with another touchdown catch by Martin, this one from 13 yards out. In the fourth quarter, Michigan scored their only points of the second half with a 34-yard touchdown catch and run by Roy Roundtree. State sealed their victory with a 39-yard interception return touchdown by <a href="/wiki/Isaiah_Lewis" class="mw-redirect" title="Isaiah Lewis">Isaiah Lewis</a>, handing Michigan their first loss of the season.<a href="#cite_note-105">[105]</a> The game was Michigan's first against a ranked opponent in the 2011 season. Michigan's record against Michigan State in the overall series dropped to 68–35–2, while its record in games involving the Paul Bunyan Trophy dropped to 35–23–2. Denard Robinson's passing performance put him over 4,000 yards in his career, the 10th Michigan quarterback to do so, and his rushing performance moved him past Tim Biakabutuka for 10th place. Punter Will Hagerup placed four of his seven punts inside Michigan State's 20-yard line, and three of those inside the 15-yard line.<a href="#cite_note-MSUNotes-104">[104]</a> The victory was Michigan State's fourth in a row against Michigan, the first time Michigan State had done this since a streak between 1959 and 1962.<a href="#cite_note-106">[106]</a> <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Vs._Purdue">Vs.

Fitzgerald Toussaint ran for 121 yards in the first quarter, including a 65-yard run on the second play of the game to set up a nine-yard touchdown run by Denard Robinson. In the second quarter, Robinson scored his second rushing touchdown of the game on a two-yard run. Michigan lost another scoring opportunity in the second quarter after tight end Kevin Koger gained 40 yards on a pass from Robinson. Robinson ran for an apparent touchdown from the eight-yard line, but the call was reversed when replay officials ruled that Robinson had stepped out of bounds at the two-yard line. On fourth down from the one-yard line, Robinson was stopped after a low snap slowed his momentum. A fumble by Robinson ended another drive, and Brendan Gibbons missed a 38-yard field goal with one minute left in the half. Michigan's defense held Illinois to 30 total yards in the first half. In the third quarter, Gibbons kicked a 27-yard field goal, but Illinois responded with a touchdown on a one-yard run by <a href="/wiki/Nathan_Scheelhaase" title="Nathan Scheelhaase">Nathan Scheelhaase</a>. Denard Robinson left the game in the third quarter after sustaining a blow to his wrist. In the fourth quarter, <a href="/wiki/J.T._Floyd" class="mw-redirect" title="J.T. Floyd">J.T.

Shortly thereafter, backup quarterback <a href="/wiki/Devin_Gardner" title="Devin Gardner">Devin Gardner</a> threw a 27-yard touchdown pass to Martavious Odoms to put Michigan ahead 24–7.

After the touchdown, the Illini attempted an onside kick, but Michigan recovered, and Toussaint ran 27 yards for Michigan's fourth and final touchdown.<a href="#cite_note-118">[118]</a> Michigan's defense forced three turnovers, sacked the Illinois quarterback four times, and held Illinois' offense to 37 rushing yards on 33 attempts for an average of 1.1 yards per carry.

It was Michigan's first <a href="/wiki/Bowl_Championship_Series#Bowl_games" title="Bowl Championship Series">BCS bowl game</a> since the 2006 season, when Michigan was defeated by the <a href="/wiki/2006_USC_Trojans_football_team" title="2006 USC Trojans football team">USC Trojans</a> in the <a href="/wiki/2007_Rose_Bowl" title="2007 Rose Bowl">2007 Rose Bowl</a>. The meeting between the Hokies and the Wolverines was the first between the two schools.<a href="#cite_note-136">[136]</a> Virginia Tech was forced to use its third-string kicker during the game, as first-string kicker Cody Journell was suspended for the game as a result of an arrest for breaking-and-entering,<a href="#cite_note-137">[137]</a> while second-string kicker Tyler Weiss was suspended from the game and sent home for missing curfew.<a href="#cite_note-138">[138]</a> Virginia Tech dominated the majority of the first half. In the first quarter, Virginia Tech's third-string kicker Justin Myer kicked a 37-yard field goal, which was the only scoring play of the quarter. Myer added a 43-yard field goal in the second quarter. At the end of the half, however, Denard Robinson threw a 45-yard touchdown pass to Junior Hemingway to give Michigan a 7–6 lead and on the ensuing kickoff, Michigan's J.B. Fitzgerald forced a fumble, which Michigan recovered. Michigan's Brendan Gibbons kicked a 24-yard field goal as time expired. In the third quarter, Michigan scored another touchdown on a Denard Robinson to Junior Hemingway pass, this time from 18 yards out. This scoring drive followed an interception by linebacker <a href="/wiki/Frank_Clark_(American_football)" title="Frank Clark (American football)">Frank Clark</a>. Virginia Tech responded with another Justin Myer field goal, this time from 36 yards away. In the fourth quarter, Virginia Tech's quarterback <a href="/wiki/Logan_Thomas" title="Logan Thomas">Logan Thomas</a> trimmed Michigan's lead to two points, and then promptly tied the game throwing a successful two-point conversion to <a href="/wiki/Marcus_Davis_(American_football)" title="Marcus Davis (American football)">Marcus Davis</a>. Michigan responded with a 39-yard Brendan Gibbons field goal, but Virginia Tech tied the game with two seconds remaining via a 25-yard field goal by Myer. In overtime, Virginia Tech seemingly scored the go-ahead touchdown on a Logan Thomas to <a href="/wiki/Danny_Coale" title="Danny Coale">Danny Coale</a> pass, but video review overturned the play. The next play saw Myer miss a 37-yard field goal. Michigan received the ball and saw Gibbons kick the game-winning 37-yard field goal.<a href="#cite_note-VaTechRecap-139">[139]</a> The game was Michigan's fifth BCS bowl appearance. With the victory, Michigan won the only BCS bowl that it had not yet won, improved its bowl record to 20–21, and improved its record against the <a href="/wiki/Atlantic_Coast_Conference" title="Atlantic Coast Conference">ACC</a> to 19–3. Michigan also moved to 2–0 in overtime in bowl games, with the previous victory coming in the <a href="/wiki/2000_Orange_Bowl" title="2000 Orange Bowl">2000 Orange Bowl</a>. Hemingway, who caught both Michigan touchdowns,<a href="#cite_note-140">[140]</a> was named the Sugar Bowl MVP.
