Just when you think you’ve seen it all, a taxidermist proves you haven’t.

Chances are, you’ve seen about every angle and reaction possible from the stunning Michigan State scoop-and-score in Ann Arbor. But the real question is, have you seen that moment recreated by dead chipmunks?

Thanks to taxidermist Nick Saade, now you can.

This masterful creation highlights the fact that hero Jalen Watts-Jackson was outstretched as he crossed the goal line. The pile of madness behind him also captures the scene that left the Big House in stunned silence.

Something tells me if Michigan State beats Ohio State, we could be seeing some more dead chipmunks with plastic helmets.
