COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- Blake Corum scored twice in the first half, Mike Sainristil intercepted two passes, and No. 3 Michigan -- playing again without suspended coach Jim Harbaugh - became the first college football program to win 1,000 games, beating Maryland 31-24 on Saturday.
The Wolverines (11-0, 8-0 Big Ten) remained unbeaten in their final tune-up before next weekend's showdown against No. 2 Ohio State, but it wasn't easy. Maryland (6-5, 3-5) rallied from a 23-3 second-quarter deficit and had the ball down five on multiple occasions in the fourth quarter.
