College Park, Md. – With its final two regular-season games looming against the two best teams in the Big Ten, Michigan had one of its more uneven performances at Maryland.
The Wolverines outplayed Maryland in the first half and built a four-touchdown lead, and then, without leading rusher Karan Higdon in the second half because of an injury, looked disinterested in the second half. That was until Chris Evans scored on a 17-yard run for the final points in a 35-10 victory on Saturday at Byrd Stadium.
BOX SCORE: Michigan 35, Maryland 10
Michigan is now 8-2, 5-2 Big Ten and will travel to No.
