Brady Norton, OG

Brady Norton has played well this season. He just hasn't been on the field for the past two games after coming back from an injury.

Norton started against New Mexico and was a starter against Oklahoma. Yet, in the past two weeks, Jake Guarnera has played in his place and played quite well.

Guarnera who is expected to be the future starting center for Michigan football, after the graduation of Greg Crippen, made some key blocks in Michigan's win at Nebraska as the Wolverines rushed for 286 yards.

At 6-foot-4, 317 pounds, Guarnera has good movement skills. He's also a really smart player. Sherrone Moore said both players could play. Norton shouldn't lose his job because of an injury but sometimes, the guy behind you is just that good.

That could be the case with Guarnera. Now that he has gotten on the field, it's going to be hard to take him off.
