The Michigan Wolverines moved to 4-0 after a routinely dominant victory over Rutgers, 31-7. It was a standard victory for the Wolverines that was secured with a heavy dose of power running, efficient passing and stingy defense.
Offensively, Michigan was balanced, throwing for 214 yards and rushing for 201. Defensively, the Wolverines held their fourth straight opponent to seven points or less and forced four turnovers (one interception, three turnovers on downs).
On paper, it was business as usual for the No. 2 ranked team in the country, but at a granular level, it is never that simple.
