Takeaways from Michigan’s Little Brown Jug win over Minnesota

Michigan Football moved to 7-2 on the season when they defeated the Minnesota Golden Gophers in the Battle for the Little Brown Jug on Saturday night before a rainy and foggy night in Ann Arbor.

Here are the takeaways from the contest.

Michigan again had its run game going on Saturday night led by a pair of standout performances from Karan Higdon and Chris Evans, who finished the night with 200 and 191 yards rushing, respectively.

It is the latest outing in a run of games for the Wolverines that has seen the rushing attack develop into a true strength for the team.
