Michigan looked like … well, Michigan again for parts of Saturday in a 50-6 win over Northwestern. The ground game churned out 210 sack adjusted yards at 6.2 YPA. That’s the first time the Wolverines have eclipsed 200 yards on the ground since they went for 300 vs. USC on the back of three long runs.
