Top 10 Moments in Scott Field History; #2: 1999 Egg Bowl
In 1986, Scott Field was expanded with the addition of an upper deck on the West side. Seating capacity went from 32,000 to 40,656. We’ve already done our list of top 10 moments in the “Davis Wade” era, so this top 10 list will consist of games played at Scott Field from 1986-2000.
Take your pick here – the “kick and the pick” or “CJ Sirmones is still open”.
MSU was down 20-6 in the 4th quarter but came storming back. Wayne Madkin hit Sirmones to tie the game. Then David Cutcliffe decided to throw the ball from his own 20 with less than 30 seconds left – it was tipped and kicked by Robert Bean, then intercepted by Eugene Clinton and brought back into field goal range for Scott Westerfield who won the game on a 44 yard kick.
