Nobody hits 100

Some Michigan football fans have been worrying about Donovan Edwards’ production but it wasn’t that different from last season.

I’m not concerned. He looked better last week and the Wolverines will continue to find ways to get him involved especially in the passing game.

Nebraska is really good against the run and allows just 1.8 yards per carry. That doesn’t mean that Michigan won’t be able to run the ball. It’s just not going to be easy. J.J. McCarthy will need to get involved like he did last week.

Corum will have a solid game. I’m. guessing he gets 80-90 yards and a touchdown or two. But I don’t think anyone reaches 100 yards and the explosive runs will be hard to come by.
