What we learned in Michigan’s rivalry win over Michigan State

Kyle Yost is a Michigan sports expert across several different teams. In addition to his writing and editorial duties at MnB, he's a Lions editor for Pride of Detroit, a Tigers contributor for Bless You Boys, and a Tottenham Hotspur supporter with Cartilage Free Captain for some international flair.

Maybe the bye week was spent watching Michigan State film, not Illinois. The Michigan Wolverines finally played like they had an actual game plan, getting just enough out of both sides of the ball to secure an important win over their rivals. While this season is still disappointing, everything would have felt so much worse with a loss to the Spartans.
