The #4 Michigan Wolverines waltzed into Piscataway as the only remaining Big Ten team that appeared to control its own destiny. It was quite cold for the fans who got pretty loud after Rutgers came up with a 4th down stop on Michigan’s first drive. The Wolverines had gone 62 yards on 12 plays, but RU’s defense got the stop when Avery Young crashed down to stuff Karan Higdon.
Michigan had a methodical drive following a three and out by the RU offense. The Wolverines went 59 yards on eight plays and converted a key third and two from the RU three yard line by a nose.
