Aaron Burbridge Makes Outstanding TD Catch as He Falls Out of Bounds

Aaron Burbridge made an outstanding leaping catch and managed to get his left foot down for the touchdown.

Michigan State is handling Air Force this afternoon and just went up 21-7 early in the second quarter thanks to this sprawling catch by Aaron Burbridge. The senior wide receiver beat his man on a first-and-10 play from the Spartan 28-yard line and made an incredible diving catch while also managing to get his left foot down in the end zone as he fell out of bounds.

The referees initially called it an incompletion, but it was reviewed and the call was overturned. You can sort of understand the refs missing this one in real time, Burbridge's whole body was going one way and he just kicked out his foot at the last minute and spiked it down right inside the pylon.
