Michigan continued to make its case as the nation’s most-improved team, using a dominant third quarter to roll past Maryland 28-0 Saturday at Byrd Stadium.

The No. 22 Wolverines (4-1) won for a fourth straight week with another smothering defensive performance to earn the first Big Ten win -- and the first win on the road -- for coach Jim Harbaugh.
