Saturday night will be a pivotal point for Michigan’s season.
The Wolverines head to Happy Valley, where No. 2 Penn State, a sea of white, and a never-ending chorus of Seven Nation Army awaits them. It is a viper pit, a place many excellent teams have entered only to leave dazed and confused and licking their wounds. And it is where the trajectory for Michigan’s season will be determined.
With a loss, the Wolverines will be all but out of the Big Ten race. They already have a loss to a division foe (Michigan State), and a second one would likely be too much to overcome.
