With its most recent loss — a 20-15 slugfest against the undefeated Indiana Hoosiers — Michigan is down to 5-5 on the season. The Wolverines have now lost each of the three road games they’ve played this season, but they’ve had a chance to win each contest. Saturday’s game was perhaps the most winnable, which makes its outcome all the more frustrating.
The reigning national champions have been much-maligned this year, and for good reason, but spoiling an undefeated season for a feel-good Indiana squad could have helped ease some of the sting felt this season.
