Michigan football's run game, defense dominates Michigan State, 29-7

Paul Bunyan isn’t leaving Ann Arbor.

Mel Tucker isn’t perfect against his rival anymore.

But Jim Harbaugh and No. 4 Michigan continued their unblemished season with a dominating second half to pull away from tougher-than-expected Michigan State on Saturday night.

Blake Corum scored twice, Jake Moody kicked five field goals, and the Wolverines’ defense held the Spartans without a first down on their first three drives of the second half en route to a 29-7 victory.

Michigan (8-0, 5-0 Big Ten) heads to Rutgers next Saturday for a second straight 7:30 p.
