It wasn’t just winning the game that shows us Michigan is the better team and more equipped for lasting success, it’s the way in which they won that reveals deeper truths about the future of the rivalry. Through four quarters, only roughly ten minutes of the game wasn’t dominated by the Michigan football team in their route of Michigan State. The last time one of these teams defeated the other by such a large margin of victory was in 2002 when UM handed the Spartans the loss, 49-3. That began a period of winning for the maize and blue until the year after the legend Lloyd Carr retired.
