Wolverines To Watch:
Offense: Running Back – Donovan Edwards – Senior
Edwards in the last two matchups against Ohio State has played one of his best games. In 2022 he had 216 yards rushing on 22 carries with two touchdowns. Last season he struggled recording 31 yards on ten carries, but he did complete a pass for 34 yards. Look for him to do something special in this one if Michigan were to win.
Defense: Defensive End – Josaiah Stewart – Senior
Stewart leads the Michigan defense in sacks with 8.5. Look for him to try to slow down the Ohio State running game and also slow down Will Howard and make life difficult for him as he tries to make big plays with their explosive talent on the outside.
Bottom Line: The Game
The Game is here and it’s a little different this season with Michigan looking to avoid ending the season over .500 and potentially hurt their rivals’ chances of winning the Big Ten title and even making the College Football Playoff.
