The Wolverines led 14-9 at halftime and then by as much as 15 points during the fourth quarter.
“I want to thank the Lord. I want to thank Coach Harbaugh,” an emotional Moore said after the game. “(Expletive) love you, man. I love the (expletive) out of you, man. Did this for you.”
Brennan, meanwhile, led San Jose State to a 42-18 victory over 8-1 Fresno State. It was the fourth straight win for the Spartans following a 1-5 start to the season.
“We got beat. We got beat by a better team tonight,” Fresno head coach Jeff Tedford said. “They were prepared. They did a great job in all phases of the game. It wasn’t our night. So now it’s time to go back to work. You don’t enjoy when these things happen, but you have to give them credit. They’re a really good football team. I said it this week, they’re probably the hottest team in our conference right now. They are a veteran group and it showed.”
