WATCH: Shea Patterson connects with Nick Eubanks for long TD
Published:
You won’t find many plays executed as well as this one.
With Michigan trailing Indiana 10-9 in the second quarter, Shea Patterson connected with Nick Eubanks for a 41-yard touchdown pass to put the Wolverines back in front. The execution was perfect.
The route from Eubanks allowed him to create separation and the pass from Patterson was right on the money. It was another big-time throw from a big-time quarterback.

The touchdown pass was the 18th of the season for Patterson. The catch was just the sixth of the year for Eubanks, and his first touchdown reception.
That pass wasn’t quite enough to give the Wolverines a halftime lead, trailing the Hoosiers 17-15 after two quarters.
Michigan will need a few more of those throws from Patterson in the second half.
