COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- Michigan will enter the final two weeks of the regular season, against its two toughest opponents, with some offensive momentum.
Emphasis on some.
The surging Wolverines amassed more than 200 yards of total offense in the first half Saturday, jumping out to a four-touchdown lead before beating short-handed Maryland 35-10 before 44,325 at Capital One Field at Maryland Stadium.
The win, its third straight, improves Michigan to 8-2 on the season and 5-2 in the Big Ten, a mark that keeps it alive in a crowded East Division race.
Chris Evans rushed for a team-high 80 yards and two touchdowns, including a 1-yard touchdown run early in the second quarter that proved to be the game-winner.
