All the punter had to do was fall on the ball-game over--I thikn I would have put my QB in to pooch punt or run aroud with the ball.

I thought about that too, but there were 9 seconds left. That is a lot of time. It really just comes down to execution. Snap was a little low, punter dropped it and then panicked. Falling on it would have given Sparty the ball with a couple seconds left and too far out for a FG attempt. Michigan would have had to defend one Hail Mary play.
