If you are having a sense of déjà vu at our calling 2016 the year of the shift, you are not alone. Baseball Info Solutions (BIS) has been tracking defensive shifts in MLB since the start of the decade, and while the trend of shift usage has pointed clearly up that whole time, even we have been surprised by how quickly it has become the standard practice in the sport. By now, every team in baseball uses shifts, but that has not slowed their upward trend. By the end of this weekend, teams will have shifted on more than 28,000 batted balls this season, which is 10,000 more times than they did last year.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Jim Harbaugh prides himself on preparing his teams for every possible scenario.Michigans coach acknowledged Monday he learned several things, in the aftermath of last years infamous loss to Michigan State in which a botched punt with 10 seconds left led to one of the most dramatic finishes in college football history.Have the punter at the right depth, Harbaugh said when pressed on what he learned from the play. Not be in a spread punt in that situation.Harbaugh called a timeout and chose to punt on a fourth-and-2 from the Spartans 47, leading by two points, after DeVeon Smith ran the ball three straight times trying to pick up a first down and run time off the clock. Harbaugh sent punter Blake ONeill onto the field, and the Australian lined up about 16 yards deep to field the snap. Harbaugh had two gunners -- players lining up as if they were wide receivers -- in the formation as if it was just another punt.It wasnt.Michigan State rushed 10 players, leaving one gunner uncovered and no one deep to return a potential punt. ONeill bobbled a low snap and instead of falling on the ball as Harbaugh would say after the game he wished the punter had done -- though ONeill was never coached to do that -- he whirled and tried to get the kick off only to be swarmed by Spartans. The football was jarred out of ONeills hands and directly into the arms of Jalen Watts-Jackson, who returned it for a 38-yard, game-winning, game-ending touchdown that left him with a broken hip after Wolverines tight end Jake Butt tackled him.Michigan States 27-23 victory was its third straight in the series and seventh win in eight games since Michigans last win at Spartan Stadium in 2007.When the bitter rivals meet again Saturday, many believe it would take something short of a miracle for the Spartans to extend their streak.No. 2 Michigan (7-0, 4-0 Big Ten)) has lost only one game since losing to Michigan State on Oct.dddddddddddd 17, 2015, at the Big House. The Spartans (2-5, 0-4) have lost five straight and are underdogs by more than three touchdowns at home.Smith said the final seconds of last years game are still boiling within him and added we still taste it in our mouth. ONeill declined an interview request this week.Wormley and Butt were two of three players positioned between the line and ONeill on last years punt team. The trio of blockers took steps toward the right to prepare for a rugby-style punt after the snap, leaving the left side of the line outnumbered by the Spartans aggressive formation.Obviously, its a devastating play, Wormley said . Its a shock. You can kind of scratch your head and say, `What just happened? Its played on the Big Ten Network probably once a week. Or, you flip through the channels and you see it. But at the end of the day, were a new team. Its a new season.Butt had the last and best shot to change the outcome last year. He sprinted just in time to hit Watts-Jackson as he approached the goal line and landed on him in the end zone.I didnt hear the punt go off so I just turned around and started running, Butt recalled. They executed on that play and thats football. It easily couldve been us in the other position. Thats the great thing about football. Anything can happen. The game is never over.But were not caught up in that game. Were not hanging out heads about it. If anything, itll motivate us a little bit more this week.---Online: AP college football website: http://collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25---Follow Larry Lage at www.twitter.com/larrylage and follow his work at www.bigstory.ap.org/content/larry-lage ' ' '
