Michigan ends losing streak with 3OT victory at Rutgers

Piscataway, N.J. — Nothing has been easy for Michigan season this season, not even winning at Rutgers, a team it has manhandled the last five years.

The Wolverines, who look like they have found an answer at quarterback in Cade McNamara, overcame a 17-point deficit, then faced overtime after giving up the tying touchdown and two-point conversion with 27 seconds left.

Michigan broke its three-game losing streak with a 48-42 victory over Rutgers in triple overtime Saturday night at SHI Stadium. Michigan is now 2-3.

The Wolverines were on offense first in the first overtime and Quinn Nordin missed the field-goal attempt, his third miss of the game.
