Michigan 31, Rutgers 7.

Funny Schiano said that with his OL getting away with a good bit of holding.

Michigan running away with it now.

Kinda sloppy, but also a bit of a gritty win. Nice 14-point swing when Sainristil got the pick-6. That was the back breaker for Rutsgers. If they score the 7 on that drive, its a 3 point game late in the 3rd, with a chance to play for the lead.

Rutsgers did, however, show how Michigan can be beaten. Throw the ball. Very little pass rush by Michigan, and lots of receivers were open. A good arm/accurate QB will be a real threat against Michigan. Stopping the run is not a problem. Stopping the pass, is.

But, never refuse a win. 31-7 is the final. I'll take it. Corum didn't get his hundo. No Heisman invite for him this year. Doesn't matter to me, as long as they find a way to beat OSU and win another B1G championship. They won't be winning another for a while.

You were uncomfortable, the side line wasn't. This was a game of managed control. Classic Harbaugh.

You're seeing M's MO this season. Rutgers became overwhelmed sometime in the late 2nd quarter and from there, M dominated the game per the stats. At the half all the trends in statistical stats favored M.

I thought the play calling made sense. The RO was nicely mixed with power. Maybe too much Edward's inside. McCarthy reached 71% completion rate mid 4th. Before that, meh. How he's graded on the UFR will be revealing.

The late 4th to close out the managed control was a paving of Rutgers DL by continuing to feed Corum, Mullins and Edward in the run game, another signature approach of Harbaugh.

On to Lincoln.

Correction: I claimed Makari Page's missed the tackle that sprung the Rutgers running back for a 70 yard TD run on Rutgers 3rd play of the game. It was actually Rod Moore (per mgo, Brian)
