Fourth Quarter
Mountaineers' next possession was unsuccessful, ending in a three-and-out. A 15-yard face mask penalty against the Mountaineers on the ensuing punt return gave Michigan the ball on the Mountaineers 34. Two plays later, the Wolverines were in the "red zone" on the Appalachian State 20-yard line. However, Michigan's next play was a false start penalty, followed by a Henne interception.
Michigan's defense forced another three-and-out, and they got the ball back on their own 24 after the ensuing punt. Five plays later, they were on the Appalachian State 44. False start and illegal motion penalties stalled the drive. Then, on fourth-and-five on the Mountaineers 33, Carr again chose to go for the first down, and for the second time a Henne incompletion caused a turnover on downs.
The Wolverines forced another three-and-out. They fumbled the ensuing punt but recovered on their own 46. On the next play, Hart scored his third touchdown of the afternoon on a 54-yard run, giving the Wolverines back the lead at 32–31. However, for the second time, a two-point conversion attempt failed, this time when Brandon Minor fell down.
On the Mountaineers' next play, Edwards threw an interception in their own territory. The Wolverines failed to take advantage, as Appalachian State blocked a Gingell field goal attempt.

Famous quotes containing the words fourth and/or quarter:
“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: but the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.”
—Bible: Hebrew Exodus, 20:8-11.
The fourth commandment.
“I was able to believe for years that going to Madame Swann’s was a vague chimera that I would never attain; after having passed a quarter of an hour there, it was the time at which I did not know her which became to me a chimera and vague, as a possible destroyed by another possible.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
