September 23, 2006: Notre Dame caps an incredible rally on Terrail Lambert's interception return for a touchdown late in the fourth quarter to win 40-37 at Michigan State.
The Irish face deficits of 17-0 in the first quarter, 31-14 at halftime and 37-21 after the third.
Brady Quinn's 43-yard touchdown pass to Jeff Samardzija midway through the fourth quarter cut the Spartans' lead to 37-27.
On Michigan State's next possession, quarterback Drew Stanton lost a fumble at the Spartans' 24-yard line. Notre Dame capitalized as Quinn hit Rhema McKnight for a 14-yard touchdown pass to make it 37-33.
Michigan State proceeded to commit another turnover as Lambert intercepted a pass from Stanton and ran it back 23 yards for what proved to be winning score.
The Spartans still had time to respond and drove past midfield, but Lambert picked off Stanton again, this time off a wild deflection, to seal the game.
Notre Dame finished the season 10-3. It lost to the Sugar Bowl to LSU 41-14.
