COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Analyzing Michigan's 28-0 victory against Maryland.
THE BIG PICTURE: Well it wasn’t pretty, but the weather wasn’t either. Wet, cold and gusty conditions didn’t favor either team, but Michigan, who is on the cusp of entering the Top 25, was able to stay in the conversation by getting Jim Harbaugh his first Big Ten victory. The nation’s No. 2 defense maintained its status by holding Maryland to 105 yards, 37 in the second half. The Wolverines took advantage of erratic quarterback Caleb Rowe, who threw three interceptions, and stuffed the running game, which was only able to amass 29 yards.
