Michigan Wolverines

Michigan's Jabrill Peppers proved again vs. Michigan State that he can do it all

Jabrill Peppers did just about everything for Michigan in its 32-23 victory over Michigan State on Saturday.

He took a direct snap for a touchdown.

He picked up a botched pitchout on a two-point conversion with a second left to ice the Wolverines' victory. It was a stark contrast to the way the 2015 game ended.

On Saturday, Peppers had five rushes for 24 yards and a TD, caught a pass, returned a punt, returned a kickoff and was a force on defense as the Wolverines ended a stretch that had seen them lose to Michigan State in seven out of eight meetings.

And then he completed the game by doing a celebratory backflip.

Others are taking notice:

Michigan has counted that he's lined up at 13 different positions in his career. Crazy. https://t.co/93HKXd4yu1
